#2237 "Singleton Spring Bedtime Cloud Story"

The bedtime clouds told the story of another spring storm. The lower altostratus deformation zone was already evident on the western horizon.
The higher level cirrostratus deformation zone had already passed us by well to the east of Singleton. The atmosphere relative winds in the warm conveyor belt had created a couple of gravity wave trains in the cloud patterns as well. The patch work pattern in the sky made me think of the cover on the bed.

This is how the sky looked at 8:15 pm and although it was early I intended to rest my weary bones after cutting and clearing trails for the wildlife all day. We built shelters from wood palettes and branches for the smaller critters. These safe havens were spaced every hundred feet or so along the trails. The small creatures are the important base of the food chain but I do not tell them that. I was tired. The rain would mean no outside work or plein air painting for the next day. It would be a studio day.
