After a visit with fellow bloggers RV Sue and the Bayfield Bunch, and a stop at the Post Office Cafe for lunch, the Yarnell hill called me back home and I saw this on the way.

Celebrate International Women’s Day today. “In 1910 the second International Conference of Working Women was held in Copenhagen. A woman named Clara Zetkin a (Leader of the 'Women's Office' for the Social Democratic Party in Germany) tabled the idea of an International Women's Day. She proposed that every year in every country there should be a celebration on the same day - a Women's Day - to press for their demands. The conference of over 100 women from 17 countries, representing unions, socialist parties, working women's clubs, and including the first three women elected to the Finnish parliament, greeted Zetkin's suggestion with unanimous approval and thus International Women's Day was the result.”
Many women have influenced my life. My dear friend Berta being just one. Today she is having shoulder surgery so please keep her in your thoughts. Thanks.

Gaelyn, lovely blue sky and photo. I will keep your friend in my prayers and wish all goes well with her surgery. Happy Skywatching!
Wonderful to see the shining white clouds in your deep blue sky.
All the best for Berta ( my mother;s name was spelled that way too) and happy women's day to you too.
I love your big ole white clouds against the beautiful blue sky.
Nice scene and very relaxing!
Gorgeous SW sky! And best wishes for your friend. This is the second blog I've read this morning about Int'l Womens Day, which I knew nothing about before. Thanks for the very interesting information about it. (And why isn't there more publicity? Hmm, I'm a little afraid I might know the answer to that.)
Cloud shadows are some of my favorite things!
What could be more welcoming than a deep blue sky with a few puffy clouds?
My wish for Berta a speedy rehabilitation to that shoulder.
Fantastic sky. I will keep your friend in my thoughts.
That sky is so sharp and clear gorgeous. Diane

I'll keep her in mind.
