Happy Mellow Yellow Monday and Blue Monday


Saw this 60's lamp in an antique shop this summer and thought it would make a great post! We never had anything like that when I was growing up and I don't remember ever seeing anything like this before;~}



Another painting from one of the students at the local high school....aren't they talented?



And, of course, I had to take a picture of this boat. Martha at http://colorcarnivalmeme.blogspot.com/ and I spotted this on our World Wide Photo Walk that we participated in a couple of months ago.

I smiled when you said you had nothing like that when you were growing up. ;-) I KNOW the feeling.

Hi Vicki, Great 'blue' and 'yellow' posts... Wonder if the owner of that boat knows that so many blog about it every week... ha ha

Hope life is good in Florida.
Hugs,
Betsy
