Most of us have a problem spelling bougainvillea and even a bigger problem pronouncing it.
But one thing we all or at least most of us agree on--it is beautiful!
We have bougainvillea blooming just outside our front and back doors.
I was standing looking out at the bougainvillea in our back yard when Charlotte walked by and said, "I thought you were going to do a post." I muttered, "I was going to but I forgot about it." She then said, "That bougainvillea is beautiful." I said, "I was just standing here thinking the same thing and thinking that I would write my post about it." She said, "No you weren't." I said, "Yes I was!"
Guess who was right!
You have something in common with my grandfather Hal Hougey. He preached at El Monte church of christ in the 1980s I believe (not sure what years exactly). My father Ken Hougey still lives in Concord, right around the corner from the church building. Although it is not a Church of Christ anymore.

I see more with my eyes and heart the beauty of God's creation which I have in the past kind of taken for granted. We must stop and look and wonder!
ReplyDeleteClif,
ReplyDeleteI thank you for taking time out of your book review posts and reflect on the beauty of one of God's most beautiful creations. What a nice way to end the work week.

You guys are sooo cute!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE these BEAUTIFUL flowers! Haven't tried planting them yet though..
Have a blessed weekend :O)
Nah ah. Getting between a husband and wife could be as thorny as that beautiful bougainvillea.
ReplyDeleteI love to look at the pink bougainvillea we have in our yard too. It's so colorful and pretty. Phoenix is filled with it now and I love it. I had to check my spelling on that word too.
