A blog I enjoyed yesterday was posted by Elisa Ruland; post titled Breaking News: The Color Green Goes Missing, well it seems that they have lost something in Atlanta, Ga.
I looked out side and had that distinct feeling I might know where their colour green has gone. A quick look through my last few months photos and yes, I know where it is.
Now just to put Elisa at ease, it is here by us and when discussing with it, why it had moved here, the answer was short and sweet, “Too damn cold up there!!”
But just to make Elisa feel better it also said “I’ll be going back when it gets warmer.”
So Elisa, I took a few photos to make sure that you can identify that it is the green you are actually looking for…..
Elisa’s post yesterday was one I really enjoyed you can read it by clicking on the title of the post I shared above or you can CLICK HERE…
You don’t play fair 😉
I know…
Wonderful.
Thanks
What a beautiful sight! All that green. I don’t have the dreaded white, but things are looking tired and brown. I may go to bed tonight dreaming of a lovely green carpet of grass–I miss that!
It will return in its on good time…
Nice one BD. I hope Elisa appreciates your care and concern!
I’m sure she does… warned me about harbouring a fugitive though
Poor Atlanta, and Birmingham, and EVERYBODY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well at least everyone can rest easy knowing the green is here by me… I’ll look after it for you all….
It’s in expert hands…..I just saw a news report on how people abandoned their cars all over the huge interstate that runs through Atlanta….just unbelievable…those poor people.
Ah, the green green grass of home! 🙂 Gorgeous pics, bulldog.
Yes something you have all year round in Natal…
We must be sharing the green! Yours is as beautiful as mine 😉
How can we hang on to it.?.. let the Northerners find their own…
Bellissime foto, tantissimo verde e quindi voglia di fare lunghe passeggiate 🙂
Un caro saluto, Pat
Thanks Pat… go for that walk… if you have the green…
Ahhh green, it’ll be quite some time before we see that color around these parts. I’m content with the lovely bright white for the time being, but talk to me around mid march and I’m sure I’ll be complaining along with the rest…
Thanks for the comment Jewels… not hoping for more cold for you, but here’s hoping the green stays for a lot longer…
I enjoyed your humor yet again, bulldog. Where I live in California we’re experiencing a drought so severe that a friend told me that a mountain which to my knowledge has been snow covered for at least the last 50 years has no snow on it. Reservoirs are critically low and this is in what is supposed to be our rainy season! So, you just might have some of our green too. I respectfully ask that you stop hoarding it and give at least some of it back, please.
Russ
Russ we promise to return as much as we can afford to let go without the golf courses turning yellow… lol..
Sorry to hear about the drought… we have had so much rain here this year and the season is not yet past… so maybe we got your rain as well, I promise if it’s yours we will send it on to you… I’ll ask the next time it rains…
We’ve had tons of rain. As I type this, more clouds are moving in. It’s green here, but the mud is hiding most of it.
As long as it’s there somewhere thats all that matters…
So beautiful and lush! We are brown here so it was nice to see some green for a change. 🙂
Thanks Laura… glad I gave you a reminder of what green looks like…
OK coming from a guy that spends in time at the Golf course of course you see green. Here in So Cal it is very expensive to keep all green right now. We need rain. I sure you like the contrast of the plains to the green sometimes.
I love the desert of the Kalahari, where we go often, but even there the golf course is green… lol
Gorgeous golf course! 🙂
Thanks LuAnn, one of my favourites to play…
I am shocked, and to think this may have been a conspiracy…that OTHER countries may have taken our green as well? I’m heartened by your promise for its safe return, but could you do me a favor and shake off the pollen before you send it our way? In the meantime I’ll take a trip down memory lane and view your beautiful “captures” (now I understand the reason photos are called this occasionally) as I shiver in -3 C and brace for the impeding snow (a rare sight in Atlanta, GA!)
Take care and enjoy every moment of our green….while you can!
😉
(Thanks for the mention!)
You have to remember not all of it leaves us to go back to you… some of it has common sense and stays here permanently for us to play golf on… thinks it’s too damn cold there by you…
Just you wait! One day our green will return and it can’t get here soon enough…or I’m just going to have to go back to Florida for a recharging of my green batteries.
Remember it doesn’t really leave us completely and be replaced by that stuff you call snow…
We’ve got green pine trees 🙂
Ahhh but it is the green grass that counts…
Dude, you stole our green!!! It makes me sigh in happiness looking at these photos :).
We didn’t steal it… it came all by itself saying “the North is too damn cold, can I stay?” and we said YES….
Ah, green’s such a great colour.
Specially when on a golf course I’m playing…
🙂
So beautiful, so beautiful… Thank you dear Rob, love, nia
Thanks Nia…
It must be wonderful to have lovely sunshine all year round, especially for playing golf. I bet you never have to play golf on a cold, grey, wet and windy day, he says jealously.
Never Brian… never… even if the weather breaks whilst playing one gets wet and then you play on… but mostly brilliant weather all year round…
Oh, I miss green, too. Great shots!!
Thanks Skye…
Green enough for me 😉 Great photos, Bulldog Pawkiss 🙂
Thank you…
HI BD,
Those are such pleasing photos to the eye. Could it be due to the green in them or the blue? What do you think?
Shakti
Could be from the beautiful blue sky and lovely green grass of the golf course… but it is beautiful to me as I’m playing golf when I took these photos… what better could one ask for…
Some of the green has also migrated to Paris…we have lovely green throughout the city!!! (Suzanne)
Glad to hear that as long as it’s not ours I don’t mind… lol
Nice one, bulldog. Let’s keep our green a little longer, though.
I want to keep it all year round…
ha-ha – Bulldog some might say that is actually a little mean……. darn funny though! Think we may have some of their green also but you are right, I’m sure it will make it’s way home again real soon.
Yep these in the North that want to take it away from us so soon… just trying to make them a little jealous… lol
