Skywatch Friday - Pines

Prescott 2010_083
I think that I shall never see
billboards as lovely as a tree.
Perhaps unless the billboards fall,
I'll never see a tree at all. 

~Ogden Nash, 
"Song of the Open Road"

(You can view sky photos from around the world at the Skywatch Friday site.)

Good old Ogden Nash and a great take on Joyce Kilmer. Although Billboards are now banned here. So we can see the trees and the forest too. MB

dont see as many as we used to...remember seeing all the south of the border signs every mile on roadtrips....

Lovely pines, stretching up into that blue, blue sky! Like MB said, we don't have billboards here... THANK GOODNESS!

Whoa, those pines are so tall and gorgeous against the blue sky! I've never been to Prescott, Flagstaff, Grand Canyon or any place in AZ north of Phoenix. I have a lot of exploring to do!

Nothing like looking at the blue sky and the green leaves.

Ogden Nash always cracks me up. Love it!

Something funky must be going on with my computer...the picture isn't there. Good thing I was with you and can imagine what it should look like. I'll come back later and see if I have better luck. :)
See you in the morning.
