Happy A - to Z Everybody - Monday Moment

 I am not participating in A to Z for April 2017.  I wish everyone good luck who is posting and I shall enjoy my visits.
 Meanwhile, I shall post my usual schtick - today for Monday Moments I include pictures from the Dallas Arboretum. The theme is Flower Power and oh, they know how to have trippy fun
 Anyone own a VW back in the day.  My crazy Aunt Jane did and if you rode with her it was like Mr. Toad's wild ride. I can remember a trip to the Jersey shore back in the day - crazy fun
 Here are some "trial" gardens.  Very healthy and lovely.
So much color. Vibrant, bold, and glorious.   Happy Monday - and happy A to Z to all participants.

Cheers!

    Those are cute vehicles! When I was in 8th grade, a friend's mom had a VW bug. One time we got nine 8th grade girls crammed into one. That would never happen these days with child safety, seat belts, etc., but oh what fun!

    Happy Monday! I loved seeing all the colorful flowers. The van and VW beetle made me smile.

    Sure got some flower power there, does such power get good gas mileage? lol

    I got to ride a Beetle rather a lot as a child - my parents never had one, but friends', and relatives did...

    Such vivid colours in the flower show! beautiful! Enjoyed the photos much.

    We had a white VW Bug back in the day. A picture was in an edition of Small World (the VW owners magazine) of daddy plowing our garden with ours!

    That VW is fantastic. I'm not A-Zing either, but it's fun to visit others without the stress :-)

      it's one of the prettiest spots in Dallas, which is not a very scenic city (in my opinion)
