Spring has sprung around these parts, but you wouldn't know it by looking at the thermometer. Chilly days and nights has us stoking the wood stove, once again.
While many things are blooming, most of them seem to be yellow in color. Yellow strikes me as the color of spring. Not too pale and yet, not too bright. Thought barely visible in this photograph, this old house has a line of Daffodils lining the walkway to the front door. The Daffs are starting to fade, but I do believe the Forsythia has taken over the springtime display.

beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI agree . . . it seems yellow is the first prominent color of spring . .
ReplyDeleteWe are so far away from that here in Michugan!
Big storm predicted for tomorrow . . .
So guess what will be prominent then . . .
WHITE
Interesting old house ~ I bet it has a story or two to tell. Love daffs ~ the more the merrier . . :)
ReplyDeleteThe flowers is always how you find the front of the house that has disintegrated over time.
ReplyDeleteI am seeing a little bit of yellow but around here, the pinkish-purple of the redbuds are more prominent...at least until the white dogwoods come into full bloom. Yellow was the color of the day on Saturday though...we drove a couple of hours east toward the coast and a vine blooming with yellow flowers (much like forsythia) was hanging on EVERYTHING on both side of the highway...it was so lovely! Happy Spring!
ReplyDeleteLove the old house, great yellow on the picture.Blessings Francine.
ReplyDeleteHard to believe but everything has sprung to life here too. And most of the colors are yellow.
ReplyDeleteGreat capture!
ReplyDeleteI clicked on your image for a closer look and was dismayed to see the porch falling in.. then I realized that this poor little house wasn't long for this world. The garden is still trying to make a good show, though. ((hugs)), Teresa :-)
ReplyDeleteyes yeelow always says 'spring' to me also
ReplyDeleteThe old place needs a bit of TLC! Great shot!
ReplyDeleteA lovely image - and yes, yellow always means Spring to me. Thank you.

ReplyDeletei love the yellow of spring. such a rich time of color each season. look forward to it each year!! ( :
ReplyDeleteWith the forsythia blooming spring is on the way...:)
ReplyDeleteWe have had the wood stove going too. But tomorrow is supposed to be nice.
ReplyDeleteForsythia is one of the shrubs I miss by living in sunny Florida. But, there are compensations . . .
ReplyDeleteSpring always very welcome.
ReplyDeleteMerle..........
We've been a little chilly again, too! I love that pale yellow of spring...such a pretty color.
ReplyDeleteLove that cheerful yellow of spring. I have the woodstove going tonight, too, but the days are getting warmer.
ReplyDeleteOh this is a gorgeous image Michelle, the light is magic! Spring will be with you soon I'm sure :)
ReplyDeleteSo much wind here-50 miles per hour. I am a fan of forsythia-beautiful.

Beautiful post. I love that quote! Might borrow it for a project I'm working on!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful Blessed week.
Pretty yellow. I picked a bouquet of the daffodils this morning but forgot to check the forsythia since we got back.
ReplyDeleteLovely old place. I can just imagine how it looked. It would be a place I would love to live in. Great shot and that flash of yellow is a very pretty addition.
ReplyDeleteWe got crocuses first, then daffodils, then the forsythias, and now the cherry trees and redbud and other flowering trees are going wild.
ReplyDelete~
You are gifted, and we are blessed to see your beautiful captures. Thank you, Michelle.
ReplyDeleteLovely splash of yellow against the house.
ReplyDeleteLove that splash of yellow!
