I finally have a photo of the sky to share. I took this one today at about 6:30 a.m. It started to rain about an hour later. This is the view from the back of the house.

Here's a picture of the rain coming down taken from our front door. In another couple of hours, the rain was gone and the sun was out. Our area received a little more that 3/4 of an inch of rain--our first measurable rain in exactly 6 months.

I have started a new photo album of pictures of the birds, flowers and other goodies from around the house.
