True Colours Thursday Beige AND Green!

All apologies for not doing memes last week. It was very hectic with two cousins in town from Texas and one friend in the area all on Spring Break. I had lots of places to go and just didn't get around to doing photos. So this week, I thought I'd make up for it by offering two springtime shots, one of this week's beige, and one of last week's green.

Daffodil, or Narcissus, whichever you prefer.

Clover, shamrock, take your pick.

Guess last week we wouldn't have had quite the vibrant colo(u)rs that we have this week. Not sure if the Daffs are true beige or not, but the petals are kind of a cream color, so I'm calling it beige.

True Colours Thursday is hosted by friend Blue.

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

You can't pinch me today, because I'm wearing green. Wasn't hard to find something, as it's my favorite color!

True Colours Thursday--Green!

Here are two green photos. Sorry I couldn't post more, but this is a busy day. I experimented with my new tripod when taking these ornament shots.


This is a green bell ornament.


This is a beaded angel that my grandmother made.

Merry Christmas to all who celebrate!

True Colours Thursday

I love green. It's my favorite color, and even a nickname of mine. I am a bit of an environmentalist, as I love nature and outdoors, and participate in recycling and using environmentally-friendly products.

But that's not what this post is about.

My friend, Blue, has come up with a very cool new meme called, "True Colours Thursday," and I am happy to be able to participate in it. This week's Colour is green, and I am going to post a few pictures of green souvenirs I picked up from my trip to Arizona last month.

This is the back logo of the t-shirt I bought at the Verde Canyon railroad. I considered buying an orange shirt to diversify my predominantly green and brown wardrobe, but I ultimately chose green because, after all, verde is the Spanish word for "green." I bought this cap at the Out of Africa Wildlife Park near Camp Verde, Arizona. There's a bit of a theme going on here. And lastly, this is a Saguaro cactus plush toy that I got from our hotel in Williams, Arizona (near the Grand Canyon). I love the saguaro cactus. I would have posted some pictures of saguaro that I took on the Beeline Highway northeast of Phoenix, but I took them as a passenger in a moving vehicle, so the quality isn't the greatest. That's why this little guy will have to be my saguaro representative.

Readers, if you have any green pictures, post them! This was fun.
