Luxury is having a few extra hours of daylight at the end of the work day. For swinging... or gardening... or orange picking... or biking... or whatever else tickles my fancy. Luxury is having such beautiful weather and the time to thoroughly enjoy it on this first fine weekend of spring.
I hope you have such luxuries in your life.
DON'T FORGET TO GO TO [THIS POST] TO ENTER MY 100th POST GIVEAWAY. YOU HAVE UNTIL MIDNIGHT ON SUNDAY. HAPPY WEEKEND !
Tracy, your flowers are lovely! I'm celebrating camellias this year as well--our house had some planted here when we arrived, too. I just adore your new bike--Maybe I'll see you riding around Upland in this amazing weather!
