Time Travel Thursday # 38 - A Bounty of Blooms at the Cottage

Posted by MAKMU ta On Wednesday, March 30, 2011 No comments


CHECK OUT ALL THE DETAILS FOR THE PARTY HERE!

And be sure to join me for the finale of Funny Faux Pas Follies this Friday.


Welcome to the 38th Time Travel Thursday linky party at the Brambleberry Cottage.

Are you ready for our next trip back in time and into the future?

Then let's get started!


The warmer temperatures have brought with them a bounty of blooms to the cottage.


And while the sunny daffodils and the sweetly scented hyacinths raised their lovely little heads weeks ago—while there was still yet quite a nip in the air—most of the cottage blossoms...


dared not emerge from their winter's nap, until they were assured of consistent warmth from the sun's cozy rays. 

But, they've since decided, it's time to shine!

What an unparalleled delight it is to watch the spritely spring parade of kaleidoscope color popping up all around me each year.


As the fragrant flowers of the plum trees begin to fade, the pretty peach blossoms arrive on the scene—ready to steal the show.


Their resplendent colors are a beaconing invitation to the bees and butterflies to come and taste of their sweet nectar.


And their delicate pink blooms are even more breathtaking set against the brilliant blue Carolina sky.


The Asian pear—while devoid of the flashy color exhibited by many of the other cottage blooms— 


puts on a showstopping performance...


of its very own.



The glorious details of the ever-changing landscape are just one more reason why I LOVE living in the country.  ; )
