It's All About The Color

 I wonder how many of you recognize what these flowers are?



They are Azaleas! I had never seen Azaleas of this color until maybe three years ago. They are my favorite color of Azalea, and you almost never see them in this color. So far, this is the only one I have seen in town or anywhere else.



Look around at the azaleas making fuchsia star bursts in spring; look at a full moon hanging silver in a black sky on a cold night. And realize that life is glorious, and that you have no business taking it for granted.

I knew straight away :) We have that colour among the ones in the cemetery as well - and I've been walking that path almost daily to follow the development...

Wow, I would have never guessed azaleas. Such a stunning color. It almost looks like a Fall color. That quote is so special too, Ginny. I'm so glad I came over to read it. A wonderful reminder.
