Thanks Shannon! ha, I wondered if the snake pic would freak people out. :-)

Corrine, very nice to see you! I hope you'll be back often.

Stephanie, I just finished a MG about Egypt! (It didn't take place there;it's in modern times when Osiris attempts another ressurrection, but still, a MG Egyptian book! Small world, huh?

Bish, I was wondering if I should include clouds or not. I know just what you mean.

Kate--I thought of it because I used to own one. :-) His name was Tyrone.

PJ---nice to see you!

Sometime clouds stripe the sky. And there are examples of layering/striping in places like the Grand Canyon or where highways have cut through hills.

Man, I wish I could use modern references like bar codes in my novel. Unfortunately, I don't think the ancient Egyptians would have known a bar code if it hit them in the face.

But I like the snake! I've got some metaphors about those little critters in my book.
