I love clouds for the same reason I love rivers. They are both exquisite examples of impermanence. Look now; look again. The cloud is not the same cloud; the river is not the same river. And you should not be the same person.

Facebook has a lovely "Your Memories on Facebook" feature that shows you posts from this day in years past.

Three years ago today, I posted this photo of Lakewood Park on my Facebook page. Now I share it here in one of my favorite Observation Deck threads ... because it has clouds in the shot!

I miss walking to and through Lakewood Park.

Happy New Year to all my friends back in The Wood!

Cool shot Peter.

You obviously weren't texting when you took it. You were taking a picture while driving on the shoreway! What were you thinking? :lol:

God this is a wonderful thread!

Thanks, Cameron. Actually, this was taken on Route 8 in Cuyahoga Falls (but I see why you might think Shoreway). And I think I had one hand on the wheel!
