There's a new exhibit at the Tucson Botanical Gardens called Frida's Garden, honoring the late, great Mexican painter Frida Kahlo and her cobalt blue house in Mexico City, La Casa Azul.
The garden is created within the famous "Frida Blue" walls and features a scaled-down version of the Aztec-inspired pyramid. Plantings in the new garden will honor the original, but with a Southwestern twist.
I visited the gardens with my friend Nancy, and of course I wore a blue top!
We ran into this person, who's obviously been hanging around the garden a long time!
I was also due for a new car, and I held out for a Subaru Crosstrek in that wonderful blue that looks like a Tucson sky and makes me so happy. I'll give my 15-year-old bronze Toyota Venza to my daughter. It should get at least another 100,000 miles, taking it up to when Juniper is a teen-ager!
That sky blue also cropped up in my current work.
Have a colorful day
