Laura Ingalls Wilder
Sky Watch Friday was started by sweet idea from Dot 3 years ago, with the simple concept of appreciating the view up in the sky. It can be an entertaining show, always something different and best of all free to all. Collecting hundreds of friends along the way Sky Watch continues to grow and sure makes my week. Thank you to our kind hosts and bloggers who participate every week.
Another weekly visit & birthday is Christina’s Soul Aperture where she too celebrates the simple joys in life. Have a great weekend everyone and remember it is a crazy old world out there sometimes, all the more reason to celebrate all that is simply good.
For me, simple pleasures include art journals using colourful glimmer mists for glittering accents and trims. This one is part of a challenge going on at Gall Creative & Scrapping Outback, with lots or prizes to win over there this week.

Good morning Mandy!
Oh you have a "creamsicle" sunset too!
Your quotes for this week's Sky Watch are wonderful!
The Laura Ingalls Wilder quote is similar to the one of Robert Brault:
"Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things."
I also love what you wrote about Sky Watch... it's really a great way to let people know what Sky Watch is all about!
Do you mind if I quote you?

ps. Thank you for getting back to me about the weather down under. I think of winter there this time of year... {a Robert Frost winter!}
40 degrees at night is perfect for me!
Such lovely, peaceful skies! Wonderful capture for the day, Mandy! And I love the quote! And thanks for the birthday wishes for Sky Watch! I believe that it's a wonderful way for people all over the world to share the beauty of their skies! Have a lovely weekend!

Hi Mandy,
Thanks so much for dropping in on my blog! Love that shot of the sky and thanks as I didn't know about that site. I too agree, I enjoy watching the sky which really interested me while I was on holidays. Winter sky/clouds are very unusual. I captured a lot on my camera. It's also having the time to stop and smell the roses and "look up". Kindest, Prux
how lovely my friend. and look at that sunset.
deep sigh.
