Now I'm seeing "red"!! Thanks for the interesting post and beautiful photos. Also love that photo from yesterday--the mackerel sky. I'd never heard that before. I know there's an old saying about "red sky......" but can't remember the implications regarding the weather.
Best,

Red is the theme of our garden as the color seems to attract the hummers... or at least more so than others. But we have yellows and oranges and purples and blues and whites mixed in as well. It seems that pink is the only color I tried to stay away from and I really don't know why.
These are gorgeous flowers, probably zone 11 and 12 and not growable here.
I love Red!
Great shots. I can see the second photo as a Christmas Card from Florida!
Fantastic blog Sandra, I enjoy as always. Great comentary also.

Very cool (no, hot) red facts! And a great bible verse to go along with them! Funny, I never even thought of Christmas! I love the graphics!!! Love especially the way the red striping matches the picture! It reminds me of peppermint.
Red is a wonderful color- one of my favorites Sandra! Remember that post (why red makes green better)? Anyway..these are some great quotes too my dear!
Beautiful header, Sandra... I didn't even think about Christmas... Your reds are beautiful... My mother used to say that fat girls shouldn't wear red... WELL-- I was a fat girl and I loved RED... ha ha

I must admit that red is not a colour I like, wear or by but I love red in nature. An interesting blog this Sandra.
Love your header but I never thought of Christmas either. Red is such a dramatic color and stands out beautifully in your photos. Thanks for all the facts on red, I would never have googled it.
