This picture is definitely one of my top faves. I took it in Las Vegas last year, happy to be strolling around in perfect weather with a perfect sky and those amazing neon lights. I was so happy to be there at that very moment.

A recent sunny day with the buildings looking like part of the sky, perfect for Skywatch Friday. Click HERE for more beautiful sky photos.

We went to the Seattle Folklife Festival for the first time, and rode the monorail, also for the first time, to get there. It was a perfect, perfect day, with warm and sunny skies; just heaven. Lots of music that made you dance. There’s nothing like live! This group was the Clumsy Lovers, a celtic bluegrass band, and a stomping good time it was. The Space Needle behind the stage was visual perfection to add to the sensory overload below it.

First we went to the Cherry Blossom Festival in the Seattle Center. This detail is of the Experience Music Project.

These tree roots are at the Seattle Center. Amazing! I wonder why they do that.

Then a chilly walk on Alki Beach, for the first time for me. Even though the weather was windy and cold, especially the rain cloud that was not raining on us, yet, the scene was so beautiful. Can you see the group of ducks on the water?
