We don't get many blue sunny skies like this so I was glad to get this shot at the garden centre yesterday!

LOL, the thumbnail looked like clouds in the sky and I thought 'now what is Sue posting?".
Blue skies rare for you there even in summer?

Yes, you know how Britons are famous for complaining about the weather :) Well in the north east of England we don't get many sunny days. I was watching the England cricket team playing Australia in London last week (on TV) and it was a gloriously sunny day, but up here it was cool and drizzly.. But it wouldn't be 'this green and pleasant land' otherwise.

That's one of the things I miss about Maine, the beautiful blue skies - even in winter.
