Make It Summer in Your Thoughts





                                                                                             (Photo from Denver Botanical Gardens)

 Today I refuse to talk about the freezing cold (Arctic Tundra)  temperatures of Massachusetts.

Instead, I'll dream of summer and flowers, farmers' markets and sunshine. 

                                                                                 ( Photos from the Albany, N.Y. Flower Show)  


Yeah.  They will all come again. (Won't they?)

 

It's important that we use our imaginations in life when the goings get rough. 

We have to use our minds to create as well as to dream.

Hope you have a warm and sunny day today, even if it's just in your hearts and thoughts!

WHAT SCENE WOULD YOU LIKE TO CREATE IN YOUR MIND TODAY?

    .. I love the Hyacinths and Tulips, Susan...
    I would visualise a lovely quiet room, fresh flowers, a comfortable chair and a book to read....this would be my escape from the summer heat and the winter cold place to go to... xxx
    Hugs.... Barb xxx

    I'll "kidnap" YOUR images and steal YOUR thoughts! It definitely requires a good imagination to create summer in my thoughts. :)

    Well spring is right around the corner for you guys who live in that freezing east coast. Here it is summer all year long so my thoughts are always of the sunshine and mild temps and the local POOL.

    Keep thinking of the beach at Sanibel Island Florida, as that is where we are headed next week. This week were are using the inside time to remove wallpaper from the kitchen walls; something I would definitely not want to do on a nice spring or summer day.

    When we return it will be half way thru March and Spring will not be too far away. You have to believe in grass in the days of Snow.

    It's hot and humid here at the moment, I'm ready for cool nights, a roaring fire and a bowl of hearty stew.

    Oh yes, I can imagine beautiful mountains and colorful Colorado in the summer. We are having dreary, blah, yucky dust. Hugs, Tammy

    I visited my late friend Sheila in Lyme, CT years ago. That photo was a smile maker for me. Thanks, Susan.

    Thanks for taking me out of the cold....the colorful flowers and fresh fruit with blue sky made me just for a moment forget it is still Winter.
