How is this for some beautiful colour???
Can't you just close your eyes...
Come on...
Play along...
You are sitting in your garden...
Cosy chair...
Cool drink in hand...
Feet up...
Listening to the birds sing...
And...
If you are lucky enough...
You can hear the waves lapping at the shore...
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh......
How was that???
I should find some pics of my beachdeck at the cottage...
That will certainly help to relax these winter aches and pains...
********
Hope you are all having a great day...
All shovelled out I hope...
I got out to Walmart today...picked up a few essentials to pack...
I have ribs in the oven...wee baby carrots...and a big Yam...
All roasting to perfection...'cause...I am cleaning out the fridge and freezer!!
2 more sleeps...and we hit the road...flip flops are packed!!
Enjoy your evening...
Cheers! :o)

Gorgeous blooms Linda... beautifully photographed ;)
ReplyDeleteHi Denise......Welcome!
DeleteSo glad you found your way here....
Those beautiful blooms are just what we need today. It's a bit overcast so don't know how good the moon viewing will be tonight. It was visible early like it was last night, will try again later. The stores were extra busy today , probably because no unnamed it out yesterday.
ReplyDeleteI went out....brrrr...at 5:30, but I didn't see it!
DeleteBeautiful hydrangeas . . . and very compelling and persuasive invitation to imagine being there in the warmth to appreciate them.
ReplyDeleteYou should have been a hypnotist . . . . lol . . . :)
Hi Eddie......
DeleteYou are getting sleepy.....sleepy.....
lol . . . . hope you can wake me up . . . . . rofl

Glad you enjoyed it Jane......
DeleteVery beautiful! I hope my new blue one outside blooms well this summer!
ReplyDeleteIt will be nice to watch it bloom.....fingers crossed!
DeleteThank you for my mini vacation!
ReplyDeleteYou earned it Birdie......enjoy!
DeleteBeautiful hydrangeas! Glad that your driving weather forecast seems fine, good planning, LSK. Went with my boyfriend to the Apple Store at Square One this afternoon, needed help with his iPod. Hmm...noticed right away how very young and techie the employees are! When did we get older? :) Looking forward to your posts from warmer weather. Have a safe drive...
ReplyDeleteHi Hester!
DeleteI spent an hour on the phone this am with APPLE.....my IPad was acting up!
I was really worried...but the guy walked me thru it.....Phew!
Will do....hey.....is it snowing again?
Oh yes, colour. How we poor Canadians need it so badly right now. I especially love the mauve petals. Wow - you are heading out soon. Now I'm getting jealous. Hope you have a great time, Linda. Think of us poor slobs while you are basking in the sun-shine.
ReplyDeleteAbsollutely Deb...don't be jealous...you will be so excited to move into your Mouse House...it will be Spring before you know it!!
DeleteOh, I so love hydrangeas. I always feel that you get a lot of bang for your buck because they have all these mini-flowers that form one big flower. The colours here are gorgeous - soft lavenders and pinks. Sigh. I needed some floral therapy today, so thank you!
ReplyDeleteWelcome....anytime!!
DeleteAhhh!!! Beautiful! xx
ReplyDeleteYes.....they sure are! New blooms soon....only about 4 months!!!
Deletethey're ever so lovely, especially the light green ones which go well in the white interior of your house
ReplyDeleteHi Dez....Yes...I do love the pale green in my white living room...I have pale green pillows in there...so soft...
DeleteIf I don't get back here before, have a safe drive down to Florida. See you there. (Don't I wish!)
ReplyDeletethanks Jessica....be sure to visit!!
DeleteOh, I enjoyed me some summer dreamin'.... I envy your packing to hit the road to warm sunshine and waves lapping the shore... Pack us, too! ;) blessings ~ tanna
ReplyDeleteI will try and squeeze you in!!
DeleteThe truck will be pretty full!!
I needed a little dose of summer today, thanks!
ReplyDeleteNo problem Debra...I think we all do....
DeleteFirst of all your violets photo in your header is beautiful. Now. All those gorgeous hydrangea blooms just made my day. I can almost smell the delicate scent and feel the warm breeze on my face as that's the only part of me, other than my hands, that are exposed these days. Beautiful blooms!! Thanks for sharing them with us.
ReplyDeleteOh I love Violets...one of mine just starting blooming again the other day...so pretty!
DeleteDid you feel the breeze??? Excellent!
Wow, I'm late....I did see these on fb and left a comment, but they are gorgeous. Our youngest daughter's wedding flowers were blue hydrangeas. Her bouquet was one HUGE bloom. Her MIL raised them in OR and had a field of them she worked and harvested and sold to flower shops.
ReplyDeleteBetter late than never Wanda....
DeleteMy eldest daughter had the same for her bridesmaids...so beautiful!
Enjoy your day...another blizzard here!!!
I went to the snowman's picnic today.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait until that warm weather is back, but I'm trying to make the most of what I've got.
:0)
Yes....I see that! You are one clever cookie!!
DeleteSafe travels, dear Linda and boyfriend! I bet you can't wait. xox
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Suzanne...we are very excited to leave!!
DeleteToes in the sand by Sunday afternoon....
Happy travel day! We got snow and the road are bad so school was cancelled...be careful! I suppose it will begin to warm up when you hit Tennessee, maybe tomorrow?
ReplyDeleteThanks Betsy...
DeleteYes...Knoxville for Friday night!
Florida Sunday....YAY!!!
Sounds like it was a great meal.
ReplyDeleteHydrangeas aren't usually my very best favorite but those shots are just toooooo gorgeous! Ok, getting closer to the "I'm off to warmer climate" post:)
ReplyDeleteThe hydrangea is magnificent!!!
