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!
