Going from Green to the Blues
May 13, 2024,10:27 AM
My series on green houses was very popular, it seems, and since Blue is a favorite color of many, I thought there must be plenty of blue houses. But it is not so easy to find them, at least where we live. Of course when I am looking at houses there are often big blue chunks of steel and glass blocking the view, so I was distracted into taking a few pictures of them while searching for the houses. May I present a few?
HOUSES FIRST
I decided to stick to blue or white/gray houses with predominantly blue tones. Like this one (the Bentley in front didn't hurt).
With early Range Rover.
Tiny beach cottages all in a row with lovely blue Chevy pickup in front make a good image, at least to me!
At the end of a cul-de-sac.
Unusual combination of blue and green. The green Range Rover should be parked here ...
Wow the red shutters really contrast against the light blue. Does this roof peak facing us seem a bit high and out of proportion?
I could easily live in this house (but where's the garage?)
It's on the greenish end of the spectrum but my wife says it's blue enough for her.
Definitely blue and the garages are in the back on the alley, surrounded by a matching blue and white fence.
Deli Mustard door (not Grey Poupon) against blue makes a statement
White but strong blue tones in the trim (and sky) make me include this one.
This is definitely blue and took many gallons of paint too.
I spotted this apartment complex and felt it had to be in the story. I think they used all the blue pigment available to get this completely saturated color!
We finish up the houses with this ... Not from yesterday's search but still a beautiful shade of blue ... this is a bed and breakfast where we stayed for a family reunion, up near Santa Barbara.
I think I will put the vehicles in a second file, so here's a teaser.
