It's Tuesday and that means time to play along with Steph, from Steph's Cup of Tea Blog! This week her chosen color is Yellow. Specifically, Mellow Yellow. I keep my camera tucked in my purse because you just never know when you are going to see something neat or bizarre.
Last Summer I saw this VW driving around town. I love how bug owners let their personalities show!
For the past week I have been trying to figure out what I would say about the color yellow. I do like it. It's sunshiny, happy, fresh and the color of most early spring wildflowers. When I remembered this photo I thought it would be perfect. After all, I thought, didn't the Beatles sing Mellow, Yellow?
I looked on Wikipedia.com and found my answer: Mellow Yellow
I was fooled! It was Donovan in 1966 who sang this classic. From my research it looks like he was friends with the Beatles and that Paul McCartney did sing back ground on that track.
Thanks again Steph, for encouraging me to look closer at things!

Wow - that's FABulous! Hee hee! Love it, and I learned something about the song, too!
That's a great picture! Looks like the Beatles were dressed for their Yellow Submarine album cover. I always regret not seeing them in concert, although I was at the premier of their movie "Hard Days Night".
How FUN!!!!
Hey--
I just heard about your surgery. I hope you are doing okay. Grayson is done with school and I am leaving for a week to visit my folks, but please let me know if you need anything. If people are doing meals I could bring one when I return.
take care xo Amy
