I really loved your photos of mimosa trees, in a strange sort of way I felt as if I were among them. I think it was seeing so many different photos of them. <br />I wish you and David the outcome that you both want and a happy Spring.

We do not celebrate this day in the US but in years past I told my neighbor about it and about the mimosa. she is a florist and now when it gets close to March 8th and she spies mimosa at the flower market, she gifts me with a bouquet! Yesterday she was telling me that the wholesale price for flowers here is So. California has gone higher because of the worldwide demand for flowers for International Women's Day! We do live in a Global market.Patriciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03688846429279351574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5764019643275791818.post-84537572620466294512013-03-07T09:11:18.567+01:002013-03-07T09:11:18.567+01:00Dear Lindy!

It's a lovely tradition. I am so thankful that your husband is getting the care he needs and will pray that his operation goes well. I'm also going to go to the music of Friar Alessandro. I will enjoy it I know but do n ot have the required plugins on this program. Do take good care and know that we are thinking of you.Sheilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17747219456841194840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5764019643275791818.post-48416641155526391172013-03-07T01:45:50.701+01:002013-03-07T01:45:50.701+01:00I was in Italy during this festival a few years ag...I was in Italy during this festival a few years ago.
