A frozen, snow-covered lake in a nearby neighborhood and one of Lucy’s favorite haunts.

This is the Cherry Blossom, a private charter boat owned by the Potomac Riverboat Company and docked at the City Marina in Alexandria, Virginia. It is located just to the left of here.

Just a reminder of the weather that’s coming in a few months, at least in this part of the world. It won’t be long, folks. Yay!

A golden sunrise over the hills of eastern Kentucky. The slightly brighter spot rising up from the trees on the left is from a power plant about 20 miles away.

Wednesday morning was unusually pretty. When I first looked out, the sky was deep blue, banded with orange-red across the horizon. Very quickly, though—within minutes—the sky bloomed into a beautiful pastel mix.
May all of you SkyWatch participants, as well as those who just come to look, have a 2010 full of beautiful skies.

Yeah, another brooding photo today, folks. Actually, this was taken very near the end of the trip I mentioned yesterday. Eight hours of skies, from Northern Virginia to eastern Kentucky, were filled with a rolling boil of purplish-gray clouds, and despite the 425-mile-long blanket overhead, a bright spot welcomed me at the end of my travels. A bright spot in more ways than one.

Taken November 4, at 8:06 am, in eastern Kentucky, Lucy seems to stop for a moment to enjoy the sunrise on one of her early morning walks.
