  4. Shining Gina, I had a hunch your epic garden had pink and misty lavender, and sho nuff!- it's in the beautiful floral shots above! By the way, even though it does not top Nat King Cole's version, I feel Willie Nelson came in with a close second with his Stardust version from his Stardust album in the mid 70's. Also includes "Sunny side of the Street' and a smoky "Moonlight in Vermont" Best!

  5. Yes Taylor, I have heard Willie many times, and that version too. He has some great soft old country/soft-rock love songs , thanks ! Gina

  6. Gina,
    Who would have thought such a beautiful gift would have come wrapped in a Youtube video? Thank you for sharing. It was a blessing.
    May I ask, what are those incredible blue and white flowers in the third picture from the top? The shape reminds me of hollyhock, but I've never seen anything like them.
    Blessings,
    Terri

  11. Good Morning,
    What lovely blogs you have-sounds like little red riding hood : )
    Anyway, I too love Nat and asked for and received one of his rare albums as a Christmas gift circa in the 1980's sometime. So, timelessly classic and fun to know that others love him too. : )
