Welcome
to Sky Watch!! Time to share and enjoy the beauty of our skies!! As I’ve
written earlier, we are having amazingly beautiful, but hot weather here in
Portland these days and nothing but clear, clear blue skies!! I’m not
complaining, but let’s face it – all blue? No clouds? No colors? Beautiful but
dull!! So, back to the files and some wonderful fluffy clouds for the
day!! Hope all of you are ready for a
great weekend – regardless of the weather and skies!! Enjoy!!

OH!~ I really like the Sam Keen quote. Isn't it delightful to feel lazy yet not feel guilty?

The clouds are a landscape all their own! YAM xx
all are wonderful.
Hello Sylvia, enjoy your great weather, it is much better than rain right? Your skies are beautiful, pretty white puffy clouds. Have a happy weekend!
Pretty rolls of cloud shapes. The second photo looks like mountains on the move.
Magnificent sky shots ~ love the clouds and all ~
Happy Weekend to you,

I'm loving those billowy clouds!
Exactly the type of cloudscape I would associate with summer.
Beautiful photos, Sylvia - I can't believe how hot it is in your part of the world. Summer never seems to make me suffer, but I've never lived anywhere really hot. Have a great weekend!
I dunno, Sylvia ... it's been raining here day and night (almost) for a couple of weeks I don't think it's going to let up for awhile. Is that like Portland?
Great photos, and I really like that last quote!!
WOW! That's some hot weather you are having at the moment! Know what you mean about blue skies. Have a great week-end, keep cool!!!
Enjoying each sky shot.
Happy weekend, Sylvia.

Here we have had nothing but rain and grey - so enjoy your blue skies! Your fluffy clouds are lovely.
Great shots!It has started raining here, quite a relief now.
Thank you for this post. I am such a fan of William Carlos Williams and his simple words that get lodged in your mind. I have never EVER seen a plum without thinking of "This is Just to Say" which I probably first read in high school over 50 years ago:
This is Just to Say
I have eaten
the plums
that were in
the icebox
and which
you were probably
saving
for breakfast
Forgive me
they were delicious
so sweet
and so cold
Beautiful skies!
Wonderful sky shots, Sylvia, they are all much more interesting then clear blue sky. But for the rest some clear blue skies would be welcome here too after a very wet and stormy week.
I hope you'll have a great weekend!
It is so true ... Plain blue sky makes almost as boring a picture as plain gray. We need those clouds ))). And some slightly cooler weather, I totally agree. With archives like yours though, you always have something wonderful to make us smile! Thanks for that and for hosting, as always!
I just love the different cloud formations you have captured!
My favorite is the first one. I love the soft colors behind that dark cloud :)
