I took these photos of the sky over the Como Park conservatory in St. Paul at noon today, SO
let the record show that on this date the sun came out and the sky was blue for one solid day--an event not witnessed for at least 7 days beforehand. I can prove it by the photo below of the Capitol in St. Paul that I took last week. That was the only day that week the sun was out too. For more beautiful sky views and less whiny commentary from fellow photographers, visit SkyWatch Friday. Happy weekend!
The old cathedrals are good,
but the great blue dome that
hangs over everything is better.

You certainly captured some beautiful blue sky, made even more impressive over the dome.
Savor the day and thanks for sharing, Noni! Gives me a smile :)
This post is like a picnic on a lovely day, Noni!
Aloha, Dear
I understand how you feel about winter. But even for just a day, let us rejoice for the blue skies!
I'm happy for your sun, and the photos are superb. We visited the Como Park about 4-1/2 years ago when in MSP for a wedding. We got some great pictures of our 3-year-old there.
Wonderful photos! Love the blue sky! Yes, we need more of it. I enjoyed your "whiny" commentary, too.
Many years ago, the kids and I toured Como Park Zoo and Conservatory on one of our summer outings to the Twin Cities.
What a glorious conservatory, an absolute carrot to this gardening donkey. Really nice shots.
Beautiful photos. What an awesome building. I love the quote!
Oh so pretty .. at The NY, once called the Bronx, Botanical Gardens there is also a fabulous conservatory/greenhouse ... but our skies are not so very blue!
Great photos...beautiful building against a bright blue sky,,,
I'll say that you finally got some blue skies... beautiful photos!

Lovely dome shape arcing through a crystal blue sky!
Nice puffy clouds but the building is quite phenomenal. Absolutely stunning. Nice add to SWF! Have a great weekend!
Not far from where I work.
Glad you got a good day for sight seeing.
Lovely skies, and a lovely blog too! I laughed at Groucho's quote about reading. :) Carry on, and have a wonderful Sunday!
The sky is so beautiful, I love blue sky. Great capture. Have a nice day..
