What a wonderful collection of kettles!
Looking for--- a yellow mbh any size, sequoia ( I know I am dreaming), avocado any size, brownie any size.

Wow! @Dale Benson that is one FINE collection! I can't believe it's been almost a year since you found that yellow, where has time gone!? Seeing these kettles in the setting of a cabin in the woods makes for a tranquil and heavenly setting. Love it!

Dale...looks like a bag of skittles!  I love all the colors.  Didn't realize the MT came in a grey color. Got more pics of the grey MT?

Converted to a Gold. I wish I had picked up a Sam Adams logo cast iron grate when I had the chance. Darn.

Great reminder that sometimes one needs to stop and smell the kettles

"Skittles".... Good one! I wish I had thought of that.

I thought I had taken pics of cleaning up the grey MT* but I can't find any so maybe I didn't. We're going back up to the cabin tomorrow and I'll try to take some photos.

* It was actually a One Touch Plus, if I recall correctly, but I added the ash bucket. I was fortunate enough to obtain this one from fellow member Chad Anderson (who also passed along the Homer Simpson 22 to me). Maybe Chad can chime in and confirm that the grey was originally a OTP? Its' crazy that I can not remember the details and that I didn't take pictures. Just too many irons in the kettle this summer I guess.

That's a great collection and it does look like a garden/flower bed!

1buckie previously commented with a photo on one of my posts or comments.  It was a shot similar to yours (great collection of color in a garden).  Seeing the photo, with all the colored kettles, reminded me of a flower bed.  I said this then and I'll say it again...

In gardening you have two expressions for flower producing plants, annuals and perennials.  A collection of colored Webers in the garden should be called perpetuals.  They're beautiful, never stop with the color show and are about as drought tolerant as anything gets!

Thanks for sharing the photos.

We can coin a new term based on the above pics and posts. "Skettles":  a colorful collection of Weber kettles that look like skittles.

I agree! This one needs to go in the WKC Glossary.
