Blue Monday


I am starting my week off right by having a spot of tea with Sally on Blue Monday. If you would like to join us, go to http://smilingsally.blogspot.com.

I saw this cute little tea pot in an antique mall. I could not resist taking a snapshot. It had just the right touch of blue.

They are making a very large addition to a school a few blocks from me. One morning, we heard a helicopter hovering for hours. It turned out they were placing some very heavy equipment and had to use a copter to move it. My neighbor made this picture and shared with me.

An adorable teapot! And the blue in the sky is so intense! Very lovely, they must have had very good flying weather.

Hi, LV....I have a collection of tea pots and this one is lovely. I would love to add it to the collection. It is perfect for your post. How you come up with all of your wonderful shots I do not know. You are amazing. Have missed you these past 6 weeks. Hope I can get back on schedule now. Hugs, feders Genie,

Happy New Year, LV! That is an adorable teapot. Do you have an extra cup for me??? I would love to join you and Sally for tea.

And that's a really neat hellicopter shot. I have always wanted to go up in one of those. My nephew worked on them when he was over in Afghanistan (sp). That's a really great shot your friend got there.

Wishing you a very Happy Blue Monday...

XO,

It'd be fun to have tea with you out of that pretty pot.

I love to watch construction, but I've never seen a helicopter used for one.

Happy Blue Monday, La Voice.
