Beverly at How Sweet the Sound hosts Pink Saturday. Stop by her Place to see the many other Pretty Pink items that Precious Pink Participating People are Putting on display.Today, I want to show you my Pink porch floor. When my house was built, the concrete did not "set" correctly before it rained. Therefore, where some rain fell, it pockmarked the concrete. To compensate, the builder put this finish on the porch.
I choose Pink without thinking that it would turn out to be double bubble gum Pink.
I've lived with it for thirteen years, but now there's a crack that has formed on the porch.
I need to attend to it. So, I'm going to repair and repaint. I will choose another color. Bye-bye, Pink!

The view of your backyard is beautiful. Love the water. The pink floor isn't so bad, made me want to blow some bubbles. :)
Happy PS

I love your porch...pink floor and all! Guess your plants stay green all year? Lucky you!!
That looks like a pretty cool porch, pink floors and all!
XO,
Sheila :-)
Oh Sally... You have such a beautiful back yard... Typical Florida right??? A very pretty lake and a wonderful Flamingo Pink floor on your porch.... I think it is really beautiful... So different but you know it really works... Have a wonderful PINK Saturday and above all have FUN!!!
(((HUGS)))

I can just feel that Florida humidity from looking at your porch pics! I kind of miss it. lol
I like your pink porch! happy p.s. and happy birthday to your son.
Happy Pink Saturday, Sally. I hope you are enjoying the holiday season.
I love your pink patio floor, and looking at your pictures makes me a bit homesick. It is just like looking out the window in our old home.
I vote for keeping the pink. ;-)
Pink for some reason reminds me of Florida....I like it.
I really like your Talk To Me widget on you side panel that is so darn cute.
Happy New year to you and your family.

Happy Pink Saturday! Your pictures make me want to be there in Florida visiting my son and his family. I know this time of the year is a great time to be there. So far our visits to him have been in November(twice), February(once) and in March(twice). The February visit was the best time. But then that was for their wedding. So that made it special. Happy Pink Saturday!
Hi Sally, This is Donna's daughter, jennifer, I just love your porch view, with the thunderstoms we are having right now with the threat of tornados...I would really love to be in Florida right now drinking some lemonade and feeling the wonderful breeze...I absolutely love the pink but I know what you mean when you have a chance to change something like that, it can be exciting....well till later bye bye and Happy Holidays, thanks for visiting my new blog...
That is bubble gum pink! I think it should be BLUE! :D Medium Sky Blue. I have some paint that color. It is so pretty.
What a beautiful view from your pink porch. I could put my exercise machine out there and have a beautiful view to enjoy while burning calories HaHa.

Sally,
It's cute....Beautiful scenery you have from the porch....Great post...Happy Pink Sautrday...Come on over to see the pink flamingo...think you would like it....
Oh, I like the floor. Can't you keep it pink? Have a wonderful holiday and New Year - it looks so pleasant in your photo!
Good morning Sally. I hope you had a wonderful Christmas.
Your pink concrete is a good look for Florida. I do see why you would be ready for a change after 13 years. What color are you thinking about?
You have a lovely porch and view. The plants remind me of when we lived in Fl. I have to bring plants in for the winter here. It is kind of a pain. I wouldn't trade where I live though.
Hugs...Jeanne
That looks like a beautiful view - who notices the floor? Sally
You have a lovely view from your porch. That bubble gum surely brings back memories!
Sal, I adore your "sun room" and I used to chew Fleer's "Double Bubble" gum by the handful when I was a kid. I would love to have a sun room like that for these cold snowy days here in the west.
Thank you, my lovely chick, for visiting with me on pink saturday....gonna go visit more people now........
Smooches,
Connie
What a wonderful view from your porch! I'm sure you are out there a lot. I think you will miss the pink but change is always good. :) Let us know what you decide. Happy PS and New Year!
Love the view! Makes me want to leave the gloomy south day we are having. Oh how about teal for the new floor. :-) Goes great with pink! HPS!
Oh, I think the pink is pretty. I can see how you would be a little tired of it though. Before we bought our house we made a down payment on a new house that had pink carpeting throughout. Later we found the house that we live in now and got our down payment back on the first house. How glad I have been ever since. Even though I love pink I know I wouldn't want it on the floor in every room for years to come. God was watching over us again.
Happy Pink Saturday.

Thank your for visiting my place today! Oh I enjoy your pink porch! Can't wait to see how you redo it! Blessings, Shay
Great porch.
I like your pink patio floor!! Your backyard makes me want to drag out the beach towels and sunscreen!
Happy Pink Saturday and Happy New Year!!
Would love to be sitting in your pink porch right about now. Crack or not!! Looks beautiful.
I'm wondering if your going to paint the floor sky blue next time???
I hope so
Love Claudie from Canada

Hi Sally,
Well I love the pink porch! My porch is red, I thought I hated it until I had hubby paint it a different color....well, we both took one look and painted it right back to the original red. At least now I know I like it. Good luck with yours!!
Hope you are having a great weekend, it's always nice to see your comments as I go visiting around Pink Saturday.
Happy Pink Saturday!
Stephanie
That porch looks great to me--Pink, crack and all!!! Happy Pink Saturday. Dana
Sally, Your pink floor is unique!!!! Bet you don't see too many floors THAT color.. What will you choose next???? Purple???? ha
Have a great day.
Hugs,
Betsy

My Grampa once painted a house he owned bubble gum pink with brown trim, he was a man that loved the color pink!
Diane
I think the color is great! Course all I see is white Happy PS!
Pink floor!! How fun...but after 13 years I would be ready for a change too!
Your back yard is beautiful. I'd like to thank you for the sympathy that you expressed over the sudden passing of my husband. I should be back to blogging by the middle of next week.
With love,
Sweetie
YOUR BACKYARD IS GORGEOUS,I KINDA LIKE THE PINK PORCH...ANN

Happy New Year!

I like the pink flowers. Maybe with the new floor you could do stamped concrete.
Hi Sally, most of us would die for a pink porch floor! It really looks nice despite the crack! Nice to have plants covered!
Happy Pink Saturday...
Love, Ann
I love your PINK porch girl..Sally you have a beautiful sun room..all your plants look healthy..Happy PINK Saturday to you..Sally I am not sure how to do the linky thing but I would love to do your Blue Monday as I see it all over the place and looks like so much fun to do..I am going to try it though thanks...hugs and smiles Gloria
Happy Pink Saturday, what a darling post..would have ever thought your porch would someday end up on a blog...lol Are you the one that hosts Blue Monday? Girl if you are I would love to join in on all the fun...
hugs ~lynne~
I just love your pink porch. What a beautiful place to sit and watch the sun rise or go down. So pretty. I wouldn't change a thing either.
Happy Pink Saturday Sal! Hey, why not change it?
really? you are going to paint it? i surely understand the desire for change (as a designer i would be out of business if no one wanted change!) LOL but, if the color itself is the reason to change...then personal choice and go for it. if it is the crack, wow, i would just do a faux stone motif and use the real crack, after the patch as your jumping off point.
can't wait to see what you come up with!
Your yard is so pretty, I even like the color of the cement : ) Happy Pink Saturday.
Kathy
Lovely cozy pink corner. I like to have a corner like this too. Happy Pink Saturday.
I love the look of your porch with the pink floor! Although I imagine change is good, even if it means retiring the pink. ;o)
EVening, sweet Sally! I love your pink porch floor and your backyard looks so beautiful too!
Be a sweetie,
Shelia ;)
Your backyard is beautiful ....sooooo green....I love your little lake.....very pretty...
Hugs,
Mo :-)
