Skywatch Friday – View from Nowhere


Late January this year, I spent my lunch hour geocaching in East Tulsa during a glorious clear, breezy, brisk Oklahoma January day. This is a view from the geocache named “Nowhere” back to my truck which is about a half mile away. Quite an interesting walk down a long abandoned road.

Thank you very much for visiting.

Skywatch Friday – Local Color

Sweetie and I attended the Tulsa Home and Garden Show last weekend at the County Fairgrounds. We got there at dusk so I snapped a photograph of the sunset.

It includes the Golden Driller. A Tulsa landmark for 40 years honoring the Oil Industry.

Full Moon in San Antonio

We were on a family trip to San Antonio. SuperPizzaBoy was in the hotel pool the first evening there. The moon was out. Funny thing, it started out small and got bigger as the evening progressed.

Late Afternoon

Late Afternoon from deep in the woods near Chandler, Oklahoma.
I was on the turnpike headed back home when I noticed on my GPS that there was a geocache that needed finding. It was on a hillside in a tree. It took a while to climb to the site and a long time for me to spot it.
I looked up and saw it was getting late. Time to head home.

Full Moon

The weather has been wild in Oklahoma the last couple of weeks. We had a warm spell, then an ice storm, then it warmed up, and then we had rain storms and tornadoes.

In the midst of all this we had a full moon. I was outside one night taking the trash out or something and looked up in the sky. We had a full moon and low thin clouds racing from the south, just hauling ass, as us Okies put it. It was beautiful. I went inside and got my camera and wasted a bunch of electrons trying to get the moon in a gap.

Skywatch Friday – Ice Storm Coming

On Monday, those of us fortunate to live in northeast Oklahoma were told that an ice storm was coming Tuesday. We also had strange sky to the south that same day. I told Sweetie that it looked an “Angry God Sky.” The ice storm came and we lived through it (and I don’t really believe that God is mad at us Okies.)
