purple hydrangea

"I think it pisses God off if you walk by the color purple in a field somewhere and don't notice it." - Alice Walker

i am thankful that i have the best people in the 365 community as my friends. i have never been one to talk or write openly about my emotions especially where a million others are bound to see. but you guys cheered me up with your encouraging comments. it is always that small gesture of concern that gives one the greatest comfort. i sincerely thank you, my friends.

i wish i could treat you all to a nice cake, but terry @sarasdadandmom had already given me a second warning on those cakes. hahaha! http://365project.org/summerfield/365-again/2012-05-16

that is nice. love the quote, too.

What a great quote Summerfield. I have to agree with you about the 365 community. What a great group of people to have as part of our lives

Ah I had forgotten that lovely quote. Goodness it amazes me how much time has passed since the Color Purple first drew my attention.

I agree that there are wonderful people here- except maybe if you post someone else's moon picture. Sigh, but the goodness here so far outweighs any bad

@roth - hahaha! no, all these hydrangea photos are sooc, if they look like they're processed, they're in camera. i keep going back to that allen gardens. it's free and there's a reasonable amount of stuff to cover. you just have to go there on a not-so-busy hour. first thing in the morning, perhaps. but not lunchtime. thank you, sue. i may be off to niagara falls on sunday, but next weekend, why don't we plan on meeting up?

@karenann - with your sweet disposition, my little annie, i doubt you'd do that. :-) who can resist purple let alone pass by it? thank you, karenann.

@pamfromcalgary - yes, this is an unusual colour, unlike the common blue ones that seemed spray painted, because i read that most of those sold commercially are spray painted. thank you, pam.

@myhrhelper - thank you, kathy.

@pandorasecho - it's been a while, indeed. i loved the movie and i love the book. i think i can categorically say that my 365 circle of friends are the best!! ;-) thank you, dixie.
