Wait A Minute Mister Postman; Postcard Party 24

Since moving to Cali I have never regretted it.  Especially now; I love the desert!  As strange as that may sound to some it is an amazing and exciting place to live.  But there are a few plants that I miss and haven't seen for quite awhile: peonies, lily of the valley and lilacs.  On the upside I could always start a little planter of them inside or just enjoy my postcards ;)

As a child, it was scenes from postcards like this one that had me hooked on travel and specifically the desert:

Dear Colleen,
Thank you again for hosting your fun Linky Party and for featuring one of my collage sheets!! It's very sweet of you!

Being a lover of flowers myself, I really love both of the postcards you have posted today. I only visited the desert Southwest once, but it was in the springtime and I have to say that the vivid purples of the cacti and the gorgeous chartreuse hues of the mesa verde trees captivated me! But I know, that like you, I would so miss my pansies, nasturtiums and lilies of the valley! They are just as beautiful, but in such a different way.

Wishing you a great rest of your day and thank you again!

Betty
