Spring has sprung

While all you ladies are heading into Autumn - I notice that you call it Fall - we here in Australia are heading into Spring. I have added a couple of photos of some azalea bushes that are enjoying the lovely warm spring weather that we are having at present. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do - they are near my kitchen window so I can see them everytime I am in the kitchen

Oh Karen,
I do hate the winter months, so I hope you will continue to regularly share warm, sunny, colorful spring/summery pictures over the next 6 months, please!! Your azaleas are truly lovely!

Beautiful! and I echo Jan in VA's request for frequent postings of such beautiful Springy things as we head into dreary winter. I love fall....but winter is just BLAH!

Gorgeous azaleas! Wish I was there to see them in person, enjoy.

Just plain beautiful...

Absolutely gorgeous, I have Azaleas also mine are pink with the color of your first one mixed in. It almost hurts your eyes it is so bright. I had to prune the bushes so house could be painted, next year may not be as pretty. Enjoy them while they last, ours only last a week unless we get high winds or rain.
I'm looking forward to cooler weather as we had a very hot summer this year.

What lovely bushes! My husband always loves to watch a golf tourney in the spring here in the US and I love to watch for the lovely azaleas. Yours are beautiful!

Oh, hold the door open-I"m coming your way. I so hate winter here!!! I"m from the South and miss having green things around me all year!

Pretty flowers!! Love the first one especially! Such color! :)

Beautiful!! I was complaining about the calenders always having desert and 'hot' pictures on them, so my friend from down under sent me a calender and right now I am looking at Green Island - Great Barrier Reef in Queensland. And my my friend is touring the eastern part of the U.S. before she heads, with some other ladies, to Aspen, Colorado for the John Denver get together in Oct.
