Cloud Fest #SkywatchFriday

As far as many are concerned, here in upstate New York, it's the last weekend of summer.  It's not what the calendar says, but seasons sometimes have their own agenda.

Today starts the Labor Day weekend.  Where I live, near Johnson City, New York, we will have "field days" - four days of carnival like fun capped by fireworks on Monday night.  Monday, in the United States, is Labor Day, which many (but, ironically, not retail workers or others) have off.

In honor of what turned out to be a hot, humid and rainy summer, I want to bring my readers back to a beautiful July day in downtown Binghamton, New York - a Friday when many came together to celebrate music, artwork, and crafts - July Fest.

The clouds decided it was time for a fest, too.

Clouds tower over a closed street and tents.

Downtown Binghamton.
The Broome County courthouse.
Oh - did I forget the music?

    Wow those clouds are vivid and seem right on top of the buildings!
    Sounds like Labor Day is a big deal where you live. That's great. Have a great weekend. I have a four day weekend myself. I love it.

    The sky--and clouds--are endlessly watchable!

    Our summer was hot and humid too. Not rainy, though, but it doesn't rain for us in the summer.

    About two hours ago, the skies opened up around here and it's been raining like cats and dogs.
