Well we had 2 really nice days around here, but again this morning it's pretty chilly. We never like what we have. We have winter, we want summer. We have summer, we want winter. I personally want everyday 74 degrees and sunny. Now if I could only find a place like that. I don't think it's going to happen.
I have many colors of tulips. So here is a tulip to bring a little bit of sunshine into your life. What is your favorite color for a tulip. I love the orange ones.

If it's a flower I like it. I am not a fan of pink, but where a flower is concerned I like pink just fine.

@fishtiger58 I'm not a fan of the color pink either but like you said, when it comes to flowers, I like all colors.

@fishtiger58 Did you enhance the colours at all or is it all natural?

@gudheart The only thing I do to my photos is resize them to fit on myLot. Otherwise nothing has been done to this photo. The color is natural.

@fishtiger58 Those are nice too. For a single color I like the lighter pastel shades.

I love flowers. Your picture turned out awesome. Thanks for sharing it with us. I want seventy degree weather as well. The cold weather makes me hurt worse, and it makes my asthma worse. I would much rather be hot than cold.

Warm would be good, get tired of the cold weather quicker the older I get it seems. Thanks so much, glad you enjoyed my shot.

I heard on the news there is a huge storm north of me in Florida. The wind was so bad, no one was on the beach, the wind and rhe waves were outstsading but no one was out standing on the beach... I just took this photo, the gulf is noisy and wild although it looks calm from this height.

Your tulip drew my eye immediately. It is gorgeous. I have to buy tulips for the inside of my house, because the deer gobble them up. I have a white and black kitchen, with red knobs on the rangetop, so I always have red flowers. I love red or black tulips.

I like the black ones too but they are really just a deep deep purple. I would love to see a true black one.

That tulip certainly is a vibrant color for a cloudy, gray day. I'm partial to yellow tulips

I have yellow tulips that change to orange a few days after they bloom.

I like almost any colour of tulip. The yellow red mix are always very pretty.

I have some yellow ones that turn completely orange a couple of days after blooming. Strange.

Here in Southern California, it is warm and sunny in the 80s. That's pretty much standard year around. I know you get rough weather in Illinois.

Yes I could live in southern Calif, but I'm afraid I could never get my husband to move, and beside that, not to sound mean, but my sister in law lives there and I rather like the close to 3000 miles that separate us.
