Well, Blogger got my hopes up by actually posting a scheduled post yesterday. Today, however, Blogger thumbed its nose at me and said Nyaa, nyaa, nyaa, nyaa, nyaa....
I like that you perhaps saw your shiney roof from the road on the way home. But I'm more concerned that you were on a road where all the signs were pointing the other way...indicating perhaps you were on the wrong side? I know it's not what happened, just an assumption on my part. But if there were UFO's, you know they could look like just about anything!
Playing catch up here - I've missed a lot - but glad i caught these clouds. Oddly enough I'd never heard of them until we had some a few months ago. They got quite a lot of news coverage locally as they're unusual - but I was at work and missed them.
We had some unusual lights in the Northeastern sky earlier in the year. We thought they were lightning but they were too regular, every minute on the minute. A piece of electronic equipment used with my cousin's telescope stopped working suddenly. It hasn't worked since according to him despite new batteries, calling the manufacturer, etc. There are strange things in these hills. It is fun to conjecture about them.
Those clouds are spectacular aren't they Vicki. One of them looks just like the ghost of Concord flying across the sky (tear in eye). Your house, if it is, is quite high up in the mountains. No wonder you have such splendid views all round.

I'm the author of The Elizabeth Goodweather Appalachian Mysteries from Bantam Dell. The series includes SIGNS IN THE BLOOD (LA MONTAGNE DES SECRETS in France), ART'S BLOOD, (LE SECRET DES APPALACHES in France,) OLD WOUNDS,IN A DARK SEASON (Anthony Nominee, Best PBO), and UNDER THE SKIN. There's also THE DAY OF SMALL THINGS (a spinoff/standalone)chronicling the unexpected life story of Miss Birdie, one of Elizabeth's neighbors.
I came to this weird business late (my first novel was published in 2005) and am still trying to figure it out.
As my novels are set in a place much like my real life home, I thought I'd use this blog to share pictures of our farm and county. I've been blogging for over five years now, on an almost daily basis, and the topics have ranged from writing, chickens, food, books, quilts, flora and fauna of all sorts, to the occasional tiny rant. There's no plan, but there are lots of pictures.
There's more information about me and my books on my web site: http://vickilanemysteries.com/

Blogger hasn't even teased me by posting a scheduled post yet. But I did recognize the spot where you photographed your roof in the distance. Jim
Strange things happen in them there mountains.... Glad you stopped to take the pictures and share them with us!
Beautiful!!!
I have dozens of photos of clouds from my most recent trip across country. They fascinate me, and your photos are lovely!
Cloudscapes can be fascinating. Are you sure you didn't see UFOs? Perhaps your house has been invaded in your absence and that's why the roof shone?
My, you do live in a wilderness, seemingly.
I bet there were alien spacecraft using those amazing clouds to hide behind...very cool. ;-)
Those are some strange looking clouds!
Interesting formation of clouds. To me it almost had the shape of a dolphin jumping out of a body of water. -- barbara

Barbara -- I too am puzzled by that. Blame it on aliens.
Strange shapes! In French, we say OVNI

Lenticular clouds. Whew! Saw those once here. Good to know UFO's were NOT watching me take my power walk.
