Hi there and welcome to my little spot on the web!
I'm so happy to link up today with
for her super fun blog hop,
This week's theme is SKY and boy do we have sky shots...
We've snapped so very many.
I think the timeless beauty,
whether from our own yard,
the ball field or halfway across the country,
has us enamored.

Throgs Neck Bridge
and head west for our trip cross country.

My girlfriend took this shot and made it the cover picture
on a photo album she complied for us for Christmas!
She went into my fb photo album and sent a bunch to Walgreen's
to make us a stunning book!
We're so lucky.
Everyone should have a friend like Lois.

One of my favorite pix ever...
sunset over a cannon on Gettysburg Battlefield,
right near the copse of trees where
Confederate General Amistad fell
A huge hero to me.
His devotion to the cause.....?
It defines bravery
So because of where this shot was taken and
because of the captivating sunset,
I just love this!
I almost didn't snap it because we were wrapping up a loooong day
touring the battlefield with a 6 and an 8 year old
and were piling into the car to head home.
But I needed just one more.
Over the soccer field
Autumn of 2010
I was so focused on Timmy's game and hardly noticed the
beauty overhead that gorgeous early Fall morning
til my older son pointed out how unusual and pretty it was!
