SkyWatch Friday #17

For SkyWatch this week, I've selected a set of pictures from our trip last weekend to Waco, Texas.

The cloud cover rolled in just in time to make sitting in the stadium all afternoon a little less unbearable.

I'll post a few more pictures from the Baylor Homecoming trip to Waco as soon as I finish wading through them all — hopefully by the first of next week.


For more intriguing images of the skies above our world, check out the SkyWatch Friday home page.

That Tx flag looks gorgeous against that blue sky!
I see you have "Siege of the Alamo" on your list to read. One of my husband's ancestors died there, Daniel Cloud. I wonder if he's mentioned in it?
