Puffy and Fluffy
"Blue skies, nothing but blue skies, from now on..."
Damn straight Willie.
Today was a spectacular day.Even though we may as yet get another shot of flurries,Spring was made itself known today.Plus it put a push into your slightly sickly narrator.A well deserved day-off,and the most was made of it.Up by seven thirty and running to empty the cabana before the garbage trucks passed.Then off to the markets and home by nine to make breakfast.
The highlight of the day was working in the yard.Staring to get stuff ready to retop and reseed my lawn this year, so the earlier its level the earlier it will be emerald.Alot of people are afraid of the fresh air if they have a cold,but it's a long held Maritime secret that if a retard has a cold you'll probably find him out icefishing or harvesting icicles topless.
Then i looked up.That was my real confirmation that Spring had sprung.The usual winter cummulus clouds were gone replaced by some nice cirrus swirls nimbus after some high altitude stratus action in the morning.Its really hard to get good photos of stratus structures because they are so thin and high that digital zoom distorts them too much while optical zoom cant define them well.Thats why a good batch of cirrus,or cirrus nimbus are great.Not too low so you cant catch details and just dark enough that the contrast with the background.And lots of swirls.
Not much going yet this year for sunset pics but I'm thinking if my cold is gone by next Tuesday I might take the ol'tripod down to Lasalle Boulevard by Herron Island and get some sunrise shots over the south shore,weather permitting.Both times I wanted to do this last year, I din't check the forecast and awoke to rain. 
Still gonna have to wait and see about wether it was a good idea to spend part of the day outdoors or not, but even if I get sicker it was worth it to hang out in my own space with my best buddy and some clouds and birds and a squirrel and an inflatable frog,the cats living in the crawlspace under the house,the garbage men in the alley and some crazy, crazy clouds.

You`re just our puffy, fluffy cutie-pie, now aren`t you!? Who's our big cutie-pie? Whooooooo`s our big fluffy-puffy-stuffykins...?
Cool entry - pretty unexpected. Feel like hanging in the clouds myself, but got a ton of corrections and marking to do - 3rd term is over and marks must be entered. Wish I could just punch holes through clouds instead, Martman. Next time. Glad to see you back.
hey fluffy,
Hope you are well- was expecting to hear a derisive rant against the bumbling politicos as they waste time in parliament complaing about hockey captain choices (and then wonder why the general population feel they aren't being adequately represented...sigh).
bread n circuses for all. good eatin'.
be well,
mr.ritz
I'm sittin here thinking it's been forever since I really hung out with my puffy and fluffy man. When's the next post coming, mr. work ethic? Aren't there any puppy-eating midgets or G.I. irregularities you wanna tell us about? I'll see you in a few hours but will expect a post by Sunday night. (It's the least you can do while you sit on your donkey watching grown men TOOL around in their shiny and oh-so-dinky cars!)
