The Good News is that there *is* a Cloud Appreciation Society :)

Even BETTER is that today's Cloud of the Day (Cumulus humilis)


makes reference to Georgia O'Keeffe with the quote

Seeing the earth from the sky was like taking a new look at the world. It opened my eyes to another way of seeing, not only the land but the clouds too.

I found the Cloud Appreciation Society when looking up a cloud type name that was unfamiliar to me in today's APOD (Astronomy Picture of the Day)


It is only by following the unfamiliar that one learns anything new
