“The Sky is the Daily Bread Of The Eyes.” – Ralph Waldo Emerson

This one hit me because of how truly gorgeous the Oklahoma sky is. I remember after we moved here and someone asked me what I thought of Oklahoma compared to California, where I had lived before. They assumed I would think that the land, the environment, was boring here. I told them, that yes, California has the more interesting landscape for the most part, the California sky was incredibly boring compared to Oklahoma’s.

Virtually every day the sky gives something beautiful to look at and experience: clouds, winds, rain, sunsets/sunrises, sun, storms, hail, lightning, thunder. It is almost never the same two days in a row.
