I haven't walked for several days due to dusty weather (and because of that dark cloud that just keeps hanging over my head). But today's weather was absolutely gorgeous and not to be wasted so I headed out early for a neighborhood walk.
It makes me very happy to come across these colorful, cheerful hollyhocks every year.
The beautiful spring came; and when Nature resumes her loveliness, the human soul is apt to revive also.

Dearest Tammy,
Yes, the human soul needs this kind of revival!
So many people are depressed due to the loss of personal freedoms.
May the good win over the evil...
Your hollyhock photos are stunning; love those old fashioned flowers.
Would have loved to bike but I'm suffering once more (long time ago...!) from a sciatica attack. No fun.
Hoping that our 3 cold nights, two close to freezing, have been the final flareup from Mr. Winter. Ready for wearing shorts and getting outdoors!
Sending you hugs,
Mariette
Surrounding myself with color and nature does my gloomies good--
the yarn bombing heart is a very good way to spread the love!
Happy Easter Tammy!
Glad you got out and enjoyed the sunshine, despite the dark cloud, good on you!

Such pretty hollyhocks to enjoy on your walk and love the crocheted heart. I also enjoyed the treasure you made from the found rings in your last post. So cute and clever. Happy stitching,
I just love hollyhocks. Ours always fall over. Such pretty colors they are. Sweet little gift you left for a lucky recipient. ((hugs)), Teresa :-)
beautiful hollyhocks! It's getting hotter here now for walks.
Pink heart - pink hollyhocks - so pretty.
Hollyhocks and palm trees together - what an amazing sight!.
Hope cheerful days will come to us all soon - we need them so much.
Take good care of yourself dear Tammy.
Hugs - Mary
I so appreciate your beautiful hollyhock photos. They are such pretty flowers and the pink crochet heart matches them perfectly. Hope you had a Happy Easter.
Hello Tammy. Glad you got out for a walk. The hollyhocks are so pretty and your pink heart is adorable! Hope you have a lovely new week of life! Thanks for stopping by and commenting, too. Hugs. Susan
I hope you had a lovely Easter Tammy, those hollyhocks are beautiful, such lovely vivid colours. 😊
Flowers certainly brighten up our day, especially in gardens and in the bush.
All the very best my friend.

I love Hollyhocks...must try and grow some this year. What a lovely show they make in your neighbourhood. xxx
Such pretty flowers hollyhocks are, and pink ones especially. I hope the dark cloud overhead paled somewhat during your walk. When we lived overseas it was always those special days of the year that were particularly difficult. Hugs to you.
Tammy - sometimes the toughest part is the first step. Glad you were able to get outside - it certainly seemed to cheer you up! I love the spires on hollyhocks - amazing that they can hold themselves up!
Such pretty photos, Tammy. A nice walk can make up for a lot, I hope it lightened your load.

So sorry I am so behind on reading blogs! I love hollyhocks as they remind me of my childhood. My Aunt had them growing in her backyard. I should plant some!
