I know the traditional colors for the Fourth of July are red, white and blue. However I'm more likely to be drawn to pink, white and periwinkle blue -- just the artist in me I guess.
What a celebration, not only this day but every day in summer when these lovelies are blooming.
To sit on this bench surrounded by a lush beautiful yard (ever so many thanks to my in-house landscape gardener for this) is truly a gift.
So here's to 'blooms' not 'booms' as we here in the States celebrate our history.
"I guess we all like to be recognized not for one piece of fireworks, but for the ledger of our daily work." - Neil Armstrong
