January's weather so far has been blah here in Oklahoma! The only thing keeping
me going is our fellow skywatchers in the southern hemisphere posting photos of the sunny beaches and warm weather. Keep it up!!
Normally I get outside no matter the weather but this year is different. It got bitterly cold, then it go wet. After my "Leave No Trace" training I don't hike in the mud any longer and didn't feel like walking on a paved trail so I've been hitting the gym's elliptical and stationary bike machines hard. All this to say that I am not out photographing the outdoors like I usually do. Plus I got exposed to covid so I couldn't even go to the gym for five days. Oh well!!
I appreciate your participation. SWF starts up on 12:30 PM Tulsa time on Thursdays and it stays open until 12 noon the following Thursday.

Skywatch Friday - 18 January 2024 Edition
Things are cold here in Oklahoma. We have had very low temperatures and a little bit of snow. But hey, the electricity and gas is on so we are warm. Of course we have to pay the bill for that when the bill comes in next month. That's next month though right?
Thank you for participating. I appreciate it. We start up every Thursday at 12:30 Central US time and keep it going until the following Thursday at noon. Then we start again a half hour later!!

Things are going to be very cold here in Oklahoma very quickly. The low Sunday is going to be 0 F (-18C) so it is bundle up time. It is supposed to snow on Monday. Oklahoma drivers are terrible on snow, just awful. I'm glad I am retired so I can just sit tight at homef and watch the crazy drivers on television.
Thank you for participating in Skywatch Friday. We start a new edition every Thursday at 12:30 PM USA Midwest time and keep it open until 12 PM the following Thursday.

Skywatch Friday - 4 January 2024 Edition - Whoa!!
I found this sign years ago in west Tulsa. I haven't been back to see if it is still there or not. I don't think the "Whoa" is official but I love a little sense of humor in our officialdom, except when the joke is on me. Nowdays you have to have a sense of humor.
I have been thinking lately about all the bloggers we have lost over the years. There have been a lot!! I'm trying to figure out how to put together a list as kind of commemoration to them.
Skywatch Friday starts anew every Thursday at 12:3PM Tulsa USA time and goes through to 12PM the following Thursday. I inherited this template from somebody else and it has lots of rules but I don't enforce them. Everybody is pretty nice and we play well with each other.
