Our days here in Virginia have lately been filled with drizzling rain, dipping temps and cloudy skies. I wonder why the darkening clouds are still amazing or why a changing sky captures the imagination. It is surely unlikely there is a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow, but today I looked for and found a silver lining!
“Look for the Silver Lining” is a popular song with music by Jerome Kern and lyrics by B.G. DeSylva. It was written in 1919 for the unsuccessful musical Zip, Goes a Million. In 1920 it was published and reused in the musical, Sally, whence it was popularized by Marilyn Miller. Among others, the song was later covered several times by Judy Garland, whose version also became, and remains, well-known. From Wikipedia.com .

Thanks Cathy! I took that photo with my cell phone on our way into Frank’s Pizza at about 6:30 PM. By the way, I have been reading more of your blog and realized you actually walked the Camino! I am so impressed! Really. That had to be the most exhilarating experience. 🙂 ~Dor

Beautiful photo! As we were driving home from the Outer Banks yesterday, the setting sun lit up the edge of a cloud. I tried to get a picture, but from a moving vehicle, they didn’t turn out very well!

I know what you mean about the difficulty in shooting pictures from a moving vehicle and sometimes there is just nowhere to stop.
