I’m so ready for this sight. I’m tired of the cold and the bleak of winter.
Claude Monet is my favorite artist. There is just something about his work that draws me in.
Have a terrific day. Big hug.

I love the faces of pansies! They are such a happy flower. Beautiful flower bed here. Nice to look at with all the snow we have on the ground here now. Have a great day!

Those pansies are beautiful. We can usually grow them here in the winter but its been so cold this year most of them have died. Anyway hope you have a wonderful week.

What a bright and pretty Pansy flower border you have here. These are such cheerful little fellows and also don’t mind cold spells as much as some other flowers. They are always the first summer flowers to be planted outside in my little town garden. Such a delight.

I just love yellow flowers. Many of my next Mellow Yellow posts will be last spring and summer’s flowers.

Sunshine and flowers, what a great combination. I sure miss summer. I would be hard pressed to find anything blooming with something other than frost. Beautiful shot.

Hi, Virginia,
I love your new header, being partial to pelicans as I am! We see lots of them when we visit Rick’s folks in Inverness, CA (the most beautiful place in California!).

I love the Monet quote, and it is so in keeping with the pictures you posted. I love flowers.

I wish I’d actually seen these flowers on Monday (mine was not nearly so mellow–a five year old with a stomach virus)…

I love flowers and I love all the blossoms you posted. Fuschia is my favorite color and that rose is gorgeous.
