Clouds

Ok, I'm here to confess that I had no idea that clouds were so fascinating.  I mean, I've always loved seeing clouds, and watching them drift by... but on a recent trip home from Virginia, I aquired a new fascination and perspective on clouds.

The weather was beautiful that day.  On a flight from Richmond, VA to Charlotte, NC we were flying above the clouds.  Now, I may sound like an idiot, but I never expected looking down on clouds to look more like the antarctic than clouds.  These pictures don't portray the story well.  I took them with my cell phone.  However, I was amazed that the clouds looked like an icy landscape.  There were mountain ranges in the distance, and peaks jutting up here and there.  And occasional areas of blue, like water.  I was totally fascinated the entire flight.

Oh, and imagine my surprise, as I am searching for the end of my seatbelt, and look up to see my brother walking up the aisle toward me.  I looked at him twice, mouth agape, and realized it wasn't actually my brother, but his twin!  (no he isn't a twin)  And then he sat right beside me.  By this time, I was befuddled, and blurted out "You look exactly like my brother!"  He took it well and told me that everyone tells him that.  LOL  We talked most of the flight, and ogled the clouds.

I hope you enjoy my cloud pics.
