Flower Friday




Angel Dory you
left us with a precious gift by teaching us to smell the flowers.


Photos taken at Cameron Village
Raleigh, NC



If you are old enough to remember a Big Boy hamburger, raise your hand.
Oh and their strawberry pie was off the charts excellent.
We don't have Big Boys in NC anymore...this photo was taken
last summer while the peeps were at the Blogville Awesome Retreat

    My hand is raised! I don't remember the strawberry pie though. I probably wanted an iScream sundae. The flowers are beautiful! I see that you are on your towel, Madi!

    Beautiful blooms! Mom remembers Big Boy. Here they were called JB's and in Indiana where she used to live it was called Azars.

    Beautiful flowers and beautiful grooming job, too! Our Mom fondly remembers Big Boy, plus the restaurant where she grew up was a good cruising spot on the main strip.

    I miss Big Boy's! We haven't had them here for 30 years ... but I've had them a few times elsewhere when I was traveling (still awhile back). Looking gorgeous, Madi!

    I remember that strawberry pie from college! Don't think we had Big Boy in Northern VA. Made a strawberry pie last year--good, but not the same! Love all the flowers.

    I'm not sure if we had these 'out west' when I was growing up in Colorado, but the statue looks familiar. Way back in the far recesses of my mind.
    Spring time flowers are the best!! You shared some beautiful ones today.

    We love seeing all the flowers. And we do still have a few Big Boys around here, though the mom says it's been years since she's been to one.

    Gorgeous flowers and FUN memories for my old Mom when you mention Big Boy. She loved that place - it was a favorite "date" spot back in the day.
