The contrast between our colors at the moment is astounding. <BR/>You are the queen of adjectives :)<BR/>Thanks for sharing those vivid and bold beauties to brighten up my morning.<BR/>We do have welcome sunshine here this morning, after several days of cold winds and snow flurries. It renews the spirit of hope that spring will indeed...eventually..bring us more beautiful warm days and colorful blooms :) <BR/>I have a few daffs struggling to open and this may be the day! My little crocuses will love the sunshine today too.
