I didn't know where I was going with these pages until they came together. It seems I can almost always find a story :)

Journaling:
Its crepe myrtle season. These trees are flowering everywhere in brilliant colors - pinks,
purples, reds. Its funny, I dont remember seeing these trees every year. Could it be they bloom more profusely after the rains of the winter? I think the first time I noticed crepe myrtles was on a drive to the Virginia beach towns of Chincoteague and Assateague. That was a long time ago in a dark period, but there is the pleasant memory of enjoying these Virginia beach towns dotted by the pretty florescent trees. I also remember there were crepe myrtle trees in the courtyard at eBay. I wonder if there are crepe myrtles in Portland? Probably not, as I think these are warm-weather trees. It has not been as hot. In fact, there has been Fog-ust most mornings, so that blue sky is real.
I never got to see the Hunderwasser house in Vienna, but wish I had. We simply ran out of time to see all there was to see Occasionally I find a picture of it on Instagram and save it in my travel file. I hope our next house is blue or green or orange or has a red or yellow or blue door. Im weary of desert neutral colors. Im ready for change.

This is wonderful! Makes me smile. Love your take on the color challenge. Love the houses and the soft colors. I love when I get to pick our next house paint!
 
I love your stories and how the narrative winds around all the imagery. Love how the houses work with the botanicals. Let's see...I'd like a porch with rockers at our next house. I too am ready for a change!
 
Wonderful! I love the houses in the background with the shots of the crepe myrtle. I can't imagine you in a house painted in neutrals :)
