When I got home from the latest camping trip this week I noticed the zinnia garden in the back yard was in full bloom.

Our little zinnia patch in full bloom.
Can’t frown around a big ole patch of zinnias, in fact every time I notice them out there I break out into a great big smile.

Brilliant color makes me smile.
What made you smile this week? Write a post, link it to Trent’s and join a merry band of smiling people from all over!

I'm a long time banker having worked in banks since the age of 17. I took a break when I turned 50 and went back to school. I graduated right when the economy took a turn for the worst and after a year of library work found myself unemployed. I was lucky that my previous bank employer wanted me back. So here I am again, a long time banker. Change is hard.

I know! We just threw seed in there and left for Norway…and then left for Washington DC, and then neglected them when we were home. Sturdy flowers!

Definitely. We just threw seeds in the ground and never did anything else. Not even water them.

I’m glad!! They make me smile every day, even though there’s a rabbit in there now that seems to be eating them.

Love those zinnias! The only thing that could be better if they were yellow! 😊

Hahahaha. There’s a couple yellow ones in there. But most of them turned out to be red!
