Pink Old Ladies....(repost)

Just wanted to share these beautiful Victorians one more time. Todays post theme, Pink Old Ladies ...ha! Was it what you expected? These georgous, stately old gals were a grand discovery in Buffalo this week. many were getting prepped and gussied up for the world's most beautiful garden tour. The Buffalo Garden Walk is an annual event that takes place the last weekend of every July. The gardens are breath taking manifestations of the resident's imaginations coming to life. Visitors decend from all over the world to walk and view and beyond, more about that when I return to view them in late July.










Linking with some of my favorites:

    Love, and I do mean love these old homes. They are so grand and send me off dreaming of all the victorian novels I have read.

    We have the same elephant not far from us. I have posted about it on PS before.

    Thanks for being my newest follower. I do so appreciate all those that come to call.

    Oh to live in a pink house! Thanks for sharing the photos - and the elephant - there is one like that in Tenn only it's holding a giant martini glass - guess it's a pickled pachyderm. Happy to be your latest follower.

    Happy Pink Saturday Sunny Sweetie...
    Oh my gosh what a gorgeous share. I can't even imagine in my mind walking through these gorgeous streets in awe at the beauty that beholds each address. How beautiful the gardens are. Love the colors and the architecture is so stunning. I can't even pick one favorite, as I awed from one to the other. So beautiful. Just beautiful.

    Now I think this pink elephant cannot believe his eyes either. He has frozen with fright at so much beauty.

    Thank you for sharing sweet friend. I sure wish I was one of the visitors strolling through the neighborhoods. They are so beautiful. Thank you for taking me along this evening. I so enjoyed myself at Porch sittin time for Scooby this evening. Many hugs and much love, Sherry

    The old (statley) ha- homes are gorgeous. The workmanship is so extravagant and I would love to live in one of them. The first pink is so pretty.

    Great pictures. Pink is my favorite color! But, you know, I personally like that last house, the green one with the pink trim. Very lovely!

    And of course, what can one say about the pink elephant. Wearing glasses, no less!
