Think Pink!


It has been raining "cats and dogs" over the past few days. The deluge has filled our back yard with enough water the fish pond is overflowing! Though I am grateful for the rain, it has a way of, er, damping my spirits.

I was looking through the pictures I took on our walk last week--Sissy and I have so much fun taking pictures together over at the abandonded mega-church and in the forest--and I found this photo.

These amazing pink blossoms stretching up into the blue, blue sky are growing out of a confused rubble of glass and debris. Isn't it wonderful to know beauty can grow in the midst of such destruction? There is always hope. Think Pink!

The pink looks so pretty against that gorgeous blue sky!

We didn't have cats and dogs but we did get a little over 2 inches of snow. And it is cold and windy.

I'm looking forward to seeing some pink in our landscape. I'm thinking a couple of weeks should herald the pinks and whites of the ornamental trees here abouts. Your picture gives me hope.

Ah yes, pink springtime blossoms - they always bring such hope. Especially when you can share them with a magical time with those you love!

The rain has stopped for a short time. Though I think it was raining cats and cats here. We now have 3 strays haunting the place, beating up our cats. Arrrrgh.
