~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It's baseball season, and I've noticed that many teams are wearing shades of
beautiful blue.

We used to live in South Florida, where the Marlins play. My husband still roots for them. Look at the gorgeous teal blue in their logo.


Now we live in the Tampa area. Sometimes, it's hard for Johnny to get the Marlins on TV, and he settles for watching the Rays. Here is the logo for the Tampa Bay Rays. It contains two delightful shades of blue.



Are there any shades of beautiful blue in your team's uniforms or logos?


Happy Blue Monday!

    Best wishes,

  28. Happy Blue Monday, dear Sally. I miss you so much, and think of you every day.

    I am a Yankees fan, but they have blue, too.

  29. Hello dear Sally, My husband rooted for the Marlins too. Both of us were transported to Florida when we were 9 years old and grew up in Miami. We didn't meet until we were in our 20's. He moved in 1946 and we moved in 1948. We lived 5 miles apart but he attended a different HS. I'm from MI and he is from OH. Our fathers had warmer weather in their dreams.

    The Gators are college teams but blue and orange is their colors. You know we have a family of Gators.

    Thank you for your email keeping me updated on how you are feeling. Feeling better is wonderful to hear.

    Today is a beautiful day in the mountains. Enjoy your day in your beautiful new home.

    Love, Jeanne

  32. Hello Sally,

    I don't think we have major baseball teams here. People seem to prefer basketball more. But it is played in some schools.

    This made me remember of a movie "A League of their own". :-)

    Happy Blue Monday!

    Mizpah,

  44. Love your shades of blue. I think thats a pretty common color among baseball teams. We have a semi-pro team I love to go to here. Maybe our Royals will climb up the ladder this year. Hope so. Happy Blue Monday.

    ReplyDelete
  45. I'm not really a baseball enthusiast, but I hope both your teams do well this year. Love that fish on the Marlins logo, and the teal color, too!

    ReplyDelete
  46. Were all black and garnet here in Gamecock country. But your post did remind me of one my favorite restaurants here in town, The Blue Marlin. YUM!

    ReplyDelete
  47. Oh, Sally...I'd be a bad wife if I didn't throw my husband's beloved Tarheels into the mix!Gotta love that Carolina blue:) Go 'Heels!!!

    ReplyDelete
  48. Your team logos are fun, and love the blue. But the only team colors we're fond of around here are black and orange - Go Giants!! (Oh, and "panda" black and white - for Pablo Sandoval). But I do love blue and white at home!!
    Thanks for hosting this fun meme.Have a great week.

  55. Hi Sally! Well, I have two favorite teams. My grandfather taught me to love the Boston Redsocks, so I've been routing for them ever since.. No blue there, though!.. My other favorite team is from my own home state, of course.. New York Yankees! Now THERE'S some blue for ya! But could I have possibly picked two bigger RIVALS than these?!!! It's not easy when they're playing each other!... Happy Blue Monday! ~tina
