Besides the "fairies" arrangement and the "wedding" themed floral arrangements at the Tulip Extravaganza last Saturday, this one was also one of my faves. I guess you might say I liked them all. :-) I realized that I didn't take a full view of this "arrangement" as I had "focused" in more on the drinks. LOL! Anyhoo, Happy Friday to all of you. It's been a rather hectic week both at the work and home front so I'm still trying to catch up with all of you . . . Take care and have a great weekend!! Hugs! Lulu

Bluesman Albert King (1923-1992) performing at Estuary Park, Oakland California. The guitar work of Albert King lives on in the playing of literally thousands of blues, rock, and jazz guitarists. Picking with his bare fingers and the volume turned WAY up, Albert created perhaps the most cutting and immediately identifiable electric blues guitar style ever. Absolutely one of the most powerful, articulate, and soulful string benders ever. (subtext borrowed from John Morgan)

Well, now, if your baby leaves you
And you got a tale to tell
Well, just take a walk down Lonely Street
To heartbreak hotel...
