Welcome

The clouds were so intriguing today.  They looked almost fake.

Mike took this picture after I got home from Dallas this afternoon.  I was mesmerized by them.  I remember laying in the yard as a kid watching the clouds.  It was one of my favorite past times.

Anyhow, I went to Dallas today for my annual eye exam.  I had Lasik six years ago.  Prior to the surgery, I was blind as a bat!  Now, my vision is perfect!  It was the best money I ever spent.  So I went downtown for my appointment.  First off, they don't make parking for a truck at the downtown office.  Second, my truck was the dirtiest vehicle in a 50 mile radius!  Third, they dilated my eyes!  You ever try driving with dilated eyes in Dallas traffic?  Luckily, I didn't really need to see anything close up.  Good thing, cause I couldn't!!  And I had my shades, otherwise, it would have been horrible!

This is what my pupil looked like when I got home after my 2 hour drive.

Still pretty dilated and they put reversal drops in before I left!  Good thing I didn't get pulled over on the way home.  I would hate to have to explain the dilated pupils.  I swear officer, I'm not high or intoxicated!

OH MY the picture is gorgeous!!! LOVE it! I've never had my eyes dilated which is strange cause I have horribly bad eyes! Can't even wear contacts anymore :(

Your eye picture is gone!

That picture is too beautiful! I've never had my eyes dialited although they always want to every year when I go. I haven't let them yet cause I'm always alone with just The Youngun and don't want to try driving with her in the car! Anywho......looks like at least Mike could see well enough to take a gorgeous photo! ;)

I've never had my pupil's dilated. Sounds scary! Good thing you made it through Dallas, sometimes that's tricky just with regular vision :), especially with all the stinking road construction

That Mike takes a damed nice photo! When I lived in Colorado I used to lay out in the meadow and watch the clouds and the hawks soar. sigh.

So pretty. It looks like the road to Oz or some other magical place.

Mike's doing an awesome job for you....I love the contrast in the sky.

When I die I'm going to ask God if I can either have the job of sky painting or cloud sculptures.
