  3. Tom: Welcome aboard to our fun meme. This is a super capture of the pond with the red, white and blue of the plants and sky. I love that reflection on the pond. Next week link in sooner on Thursday so more can see your photos.

  10. It is really beautiful there and I can see why you enjoy going there often. What a lot of huckleberries, but they sure add to the color in the photo!

  11. Gorgeous, again.

    Do you know I just realized your last name was Arbour. How fitting that the etymology of your name is garden. Fate, destiny, kismet.

  14. Great capture of a perfect moment Tom! I like how you have the trees framing the sides...that could easily be a painting!

  15. Wren, you are welcome.

    Thanks Abe.

    Thanks Tom. I've actually been doing Sky Watch for quite some time. I went back to see when I started, and it was this past spring. It is amazing how much this meme has grown.

    2sweet- Thank you.

    Thanks Larry- The huckleberries were intensely colorful and were begging to be photographed.

    Faye- Thank you!

    Dar- Thanks for stopping by my Sky Watch contribution.

    Thanks Tootie. I don't think I've heard the named Tootie since I last watched an episode of Facts of Life. :)

    Thanks Lana.

    Ivar- Thank you.

    Mary- There are tons of huckleberries in the acidic soil around the slopes above little pond. They are quite nice to eat in Early August.

    Thanks Earthmother. My fellow botanist at work's last name is "Gardner" and no, I'm not kidding!

    Thanks Anna and Chris!

    Spooky. It would make a great painting. I do paint- I'll probably get more into that when the snow starts falling.
