Monday Sunshine
Thought I'd start the week off with some sunshine! I found this garden ornament at the nursery I visited on Friday. I might have to go back and get one of these. I like that bright sunshine look.
So bright and cheery! Looking at that, I could almost believe the sun wishes us well - instead of pouring down a string of 40+C degree days we're getting in a summer scorcher heatwave!!
An interesting object. Not sure I'd take one home, though, and can't imagine that you'd need more sunshine in Phoenix. I watched some of the golf tournament - they said about 200K were in attendance on Saturday. Is that even possible? The weather looked gorgeous!
It was crazy! I've never seen anything close to these numbers. Saturday afternoon they said there were 190K and then later 200K. Most tournaments run 30-40K - if they're lucky.
Yesterday the attendance estimates were down to 140K. That's still an incredible number of people milling around a golf course! :)
We went bike riding this am. It was 64 so I wore a sweatshirt! :)
A very happy looking start to the week!

ReplyDeleteI wish I had one of these to stick in the snow in my backyard.
ReplyDeleteWould look fantastic on an outside wall. Did it go home with you Sharon ?
ReplyDeleteGo back and get it! We all need a ray of sunshine!

ReplyDeleteI could use one too, we've had quite a winter. Fantastic color - hope you got one after all!

Just what I needed this morning as the sun is hidden behind thick dark clouds. I wouldn't mind so much if there was some moisture coming out of them.
ReplyDeleteYes, you must go back and get it!
ReplyDeleteIt was a treat to see it on your blog today, Sharon!
ReplyDeleteCheerful little garden ornament and the colors would fit right in with my garden. Maybe I should go get one.
ReplyDeleteNow that's cheerful.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful garden ornament, I like it.
ReplyDeleteDo go back! So original.
