On July 1st we celebrated Canada's 158th birthday of Confederation. On Friday, July 4th Americans will celebrate 249 years. Happy Birthday to both nations. These two countries are young compared to many nations around the world and we're both experiencing growing pains. I hope the next century will be kind to us all.
I took the following photos in the very early morning on Thursday just as the sun was rising. The day started out cloudy and a bit cool after a hot few days. The sun did come out in late afternoon but it's supposed to be cooler this weekend and then get back up in the high 20s next week.

Thank you for stopping by my
Skywatch Friday post. Have a wonderful weekend.
My favorite photo is the first color sky shot. Happy Birthday Canada!
ReplyDeleteThe 2nd photo is my favourite!
ReplyDeleteHappy Independence Day! Snaps and sparkles.
ReplyDeleteI think Canada has a lot to teach the USA. Happy Birthday to both countries!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful skies, Penny. I wish we could be Canadian (I'm wearing my Canada True North shirt again today as a form of protest.) Have a lovely fourth as we celebrate what we were and commit to what we will once again be.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos. Happy belated birthday to Canada!
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday, Canada! Canada is one of the most loved and popular countries in my country, mainly for its safety, generous diversity, and beautiful or dynamic nature. May Canadian people can continue good relationships with the US.
ReplyDeleteI like the subtle colors of the sky in the second photo - the blue sky and the color of light seen through the clouds.
