Skywatch Friday, Cobalt Blue

It's Skywatch time again, and Selma's skies are blue, so blue and even more blue with temperatures around 100 degrees Fahrenheit.

So we could use a few gray skies and rain, but I sure hate to complain about blue skies!

More skies to gaze at over at the Skywatch Friday meme.

WELCOME!

Selma is among the oldest cities in Alabama and has the largest contiguous historic district. It is known for its Civil War and Civil Rights history. The Battle of Selma was one of the last fought in the War Between the States, and the town was a center for the Voting Rights Movement in the 1960s. Today, with a population of about 20,000, Selma is the largest town in the western Black Belt region. The Black Belt, named for the color of its soil, stretches across Central Alabama from Mississippi to Georgia.
