Ever hear of the #CloudAppreciationSociety?

Yes, seriously! It's a space for artists, scientists, #cloud spotters, and dreamers, who love to share #sky photos. They also provide quality materials for classroom and educational uses. Super cool!

Anyhow, I've been a member for a few decades now... and I have a sneaky feeling some of my fellow Fediverse peeps might also dig it. Enjoy, fellow #clouds enthusiasts!
