Focus On Life 2014!

 
 Week Five: Get Outside
 
 
 

Now don't think I'm gloating, and I really feel terrible about the horrid winters so many of you are suffering through. Just wanted to bring you a little joy, 'cause this is what is happening outside at my house.

Yep, the azaleas are blooming! While most of you are waiting for crocus and other signs of spring to start sprouting, it's happening already here.

They're not supposed to start until mid- to late February, but with this wacko winter even for Florida, they have been at it already for the past week and a half.

See you next week.


Now please take some time to visit the others in this weekly blog hop at: The Studio Sublime.

  3. Your Azalea is wonderful to see. So bright and cheery. It will be a really long time before anything blooms here.

  4. I love azaleas. My mother had three bushes, one in each color. They would be glorious in full bloom

  6. Super shot Marlene. Gorgeous color here, too! I almost took a shot of our roses that are so pretty right now in our rose garden, but the morning sunrise the other day just took my breath away and won out! LOL!!
