Sky Watch Friday!

It was series of pastel clouds at sunset that caught my eye this week. The colors so delicate made a perfect backdrop for the darkened trees as the day wound down.








The next day while driving down near Puget Sound I saw these lovely, puffy clouds -- perfect summer day!

I'm jealous if you have summer already. We've had tons of rain and it still feels like spring in central Ontario.

Such pretty clouds!

Beauitfuil skies to float away in. Today I would like to be a balloon of a kite to be lifted in the gentle breeze. Quite mellow for me wasn't it.
