Beverly at how sweet the sound hosts Pink Saturday. If you'd like to jump on the bandwagon, click on the pink lady to the left. Here's what I've found to share with you this week.Living in South Florida, it's not unusual to see a pink house. Here's one not too far from where I live. Notice please: the roof is pink, the house is pink, the trim is pink, even the pavers in the driveway are pink. I think it's beautiful and a perfect color for South Florida living.
I thought I'd include a couple of pictures of our pink crape myrtle tree in our backyard. These shots were taken the end of June; the tree was spectacular this year.
Thursday I hit post number 100. Keeping with the custom of Blogland, I have a giveaway. Check it out.

Your pictures make me homesick. The house we lived in when I was a teenager was pink, but our tile roof was white.
Happy Pink Saturday.
And, go Dolphins!!!
How fun would it be to live in pink house! Great post. :)
Have a wonderful weekend, J.
I love the colors of the house! You don't see too many pink houses around here!
I also love your trees. I'll bet they were stunning! Pink flowers are just about the most beautiful thing!!!!
take care,
Dawn
Hello,
You found some nice pink. I'm going to have to keep my eye out for a pink house to photograph in the future :0)
Love the trees!
I'll be back on Monday to play Blue Monday...
First of all Sweet Smiling Pink One, let me congratulate you on your 100th post! Woo Hoo! Clap clap! Love the Pink house ~ it's a beauty! Now those crepe mrytles looks very beautiful. I have a couple and I don't think they like me ~ they don't bloom very much!
Now, isn't that something about the tern 'what nots'. I'm from the deep south, Alabama, as well as my family. I have done some genealogy searching and have most coming from Virginia and then to the south. I love the term any way, but Sally, I ain't no Yankee!! You know I love ya!!
Be a Pink sweetie,
Shelia
I think crepe myrtle is the best tree ever. Aren't pink houses something else?

I love pink houses... for me, that's generally a sign that I am on vacation. LOL I dont see too many pink houses in Texas. :) xoxo, Joanna
Hi, Sally, hope you're staying safe and dry?
Your home looks like a wonderful cozy place to live. I love your crape myrtle photos, too. so very pretty!
Congrats on post 100!
Good Morning Sally, Happy Pink Saturday to you!...Thank you for visiting me today!...Like Florida, lots of pink houses here too in California?...what is it about warm weather & pink houses??? :)....have a great day!....Heidi XO
Gosh! That house looks just like a house of a friend I had in Fort Lauderdale. Unbelievable! xo Vanessa
Those beautiful stucco houses always make me smile. I've been to Florida just twice and both times I've had my husband drive me around some of the neighborhoods to admire the architecture and color palette.
Hola Sally!!
Really a PINK HOUSE.!!
Your myrtles were spectacular!!!
Tal vez me una a tus lunes azules: It depends of my times...

WOW, that IS a pink house! You are right, perfect for Florida I am sure! :) Enjoy your day! xo!
Very nice, a pink house. My fav though is the crepe myrtle, LOVE those trees! Happy Pink Saturday!
Here on the other side of the country, California, we don't have many pink houses. Unfortunately!
Happy Pink Saturday!
Love the pink houses....and the song by John Cougar!
Sally, I too lived in So. Fl and then Central Fl. Houses can be any color and we did have a pink house in our neighborhood. A two story
Boca style with the two story window in front. It was very much like our home. Ours would never be pink. Such is life in the sub tropics. Your trees were stunning. Think pink!
Hugs, Jeanne
Oh, gosh...it oughta be a law that you HAD to live in at least ONE pink house in your lifetime...and I would choose THIS one!!
The pink flowers are lovely...
bj
The pink house looks great...they sure used the right color....We have a crape myrtle in our back yard and the darn thing still hasen't bloomed....we have had it there about 4 yrs....I hope someday ours looks like yours, it is beautiful.....
Hugs,
Mo :-)
Happy Pink Saturday!

My neighbor use to have his house a SMURFF BLUE. It was 3 years after we moved in they painted. I would have rather had pink than blue. Heee Pinkness to you. Kathy
I love the tree. It is beautiful! I also like the yellow ones that are just like it. :)
Lovely PS post! Such a pretty pink house. Love your crape myrtle. I have two in my backyard.

How fun to see a pink house like that! I have heard that there are parts of Florida that have such fun colors for their homes. It would be fun to see! Also love the crepe myrtles. They're just beautiful!
Kady
P.S. Loved the video in the previous post. I had never given any thought to the flyovers, but it is really pretty amazing how much time goes into that!
It's a nice shade of pink, too. Doesn't go BANG in your face! It fits for Florida! Have a Happy Pink Saturday!
Sally,

That pink house is beautiful! I especially like the roof. I would love to live in a pretty pink house like that. Your tree is very pretty too. I love late May and June when all of the tress are in full bloom.
Sweet, sweet pink things! Love pink houses!
Kathy
OHhh love the myrtle...lovely! This is my first time here...I love the name of your blog..so sweet. cherry
Hi Sally
oh beautiful pink house. I love your backyard. Where abouts is the city you live in? Do you get aligators in that nice water behind you?
Your tree is beautiful with its pink blooms...they must smell lovely too.
Thank you for sharing.
Have a nice one.
Judi
The pink house is adorable!
And to answer your question about the boat's name.....it used to be called "The Julia Belle Swain "
unless they changed it.
I think the General Jackson is in Nashville,Tn.
That tree is gorgeous!
Smiling Sally,
YOu made me smile with that pink post! Loved the house and how's the weather in south florida?
I'd love to peek in the windows of that pink house...I wonder if there are pink rooms in there.
Maybe it has something to do with the warm weather, the pink houses I mean. We see pink down here in the southwest too oddly enough.
Thanks for reading my haiku. Although how embarrassing for me I looked at it realized my syllables are off and had to fix them.
Sleep need more sleep. :)
Your crepe myrtle is so beautiful especially next to the lake.
Have a wonderful pink weekend.
Cori G.
What a beautiful house! I agree..pink is a great color for a house!

Hi Sally,
I love that shade of pink in crepe myrtles!
Hope you have a great pink sat. and weekend!

Beautiful trees, Sally! I love pics like these. :D
Now that is a pink house looks like some one used Pepito for paint...
I do think it is a good color for south Fl. I like the pink....
Happy Pink Saturday.

That is a very pretty pink house. I love crepe myrtles, and yours is beautiful.
Cool house, love it. Thank you and Happy pink Saturday!
Kathy
My inlaws live in Florida and I love to visit. Your crepe myrtles are gorgeous.
What a gorgeous *pink* house! We have some *pink* houses around our area, but not many, and not like that! They are usually little tiny houses, that are very sweet.
Beautiful crape myrtle too!
Congrats on your 100th post!
Margie
