Today I’m sharing just a few random photos of Florida blue skies, white clouds, and flowers taken over a period of time. We’ll start with a ride on Main Street, New Port Richey, Florida.
We’ll go over the bridge.
Get a view of the Pithlachascotee River (also called ‘Cotee River).
Drive by a home with a gorgeous sky.
Got a glimpse of orange flowers.
Saw a friend’s African Violets and other flashes of color.
Captured a brief look at a Monarch butterfly on a butterfly bush.
I’ll close with a sunset on the river.
Stay safe and well.

…I can understand why he Pithlachascotee River is called ‘Cotee River.
Yes the Native American name is a mouthful
Carol,
Beautiful pictures!! I love sun sets but I also think that cloud formations make the most intriguing pictures!!
Thanks so much for stopping by!!
Hugs,
Debbie
Everything is beautiful. From the beautiful sky, the beautiful river view to the beautiful butterfly and flowers and finally ending with a beautiful sunset. Take care and stay safe.
thanks Nancy – have a great day!
Tropical beauty!
How beautiful to join you on a colourful wander in your neck of the woods! Florida certainly looks so appealing with it’s pretty painted houses and all the bright flowers and butterflies. Summer is completely passing me by here in Thailand – it’s our hot and rainy season! So I have so enjoyed my visit with you today Carol.

I have to admit to you that summer is also the hot rainy season here in Florida. We still get beautiful blue skies – then in afternoon or evening storms move in from the Gulf of Mexico and we have rain for an hour or so and then the clouds are gone and the sun comes out again. It’s hard to get photos now with the pandemic and my normal staying out of the hot, humid weather outside. Early morning or late afternoon before sunset are the best times.
Each and every image is beauitful, Carol. I do love puffy white clouds against a splendid blue sky!
You are so kind with your words – I do enjoy our conversations.
Beautiful photographs. And the sky was gorgeous as well. Just lovely. TFS
many thanks for your support dear Clearissa!
Hi Carol, lovely photos. Florida always looks so inviting in your photos. Now Pithlachascotee River is not something you would want to say if you didn’t have your own teeth, that’s for sure!

that’s why most folks just shorten it to ‘Cotee River – the Native American word is hard!
Such pretty pictures on what seems like a really nice drive.
Great.
You have the most amazing skies!! Love the photos of the monarchs.
thanks Pete – have a great weekend!
Hello,
Beautiful skies. The flowers and butterfly are lovely too. Take care, have a happy day and weekend!
A very pretty series of photos, lovely scenery, beautiful flowers and butterfly 🙂
Beautiful photos! I know where New Port Richey is. I live near there.
well howdy neighbor!! I live close to New Port Richey too in Pasco County. It’s always fun to meet new folks – especially when they live close.
You do a great job showing off the beauty of Florida.
Thanks Alan – I appreciate the kind comment.
Carol ~ gorgeous series of nature photos ~ all very beautiful!

Carol – one of the many things I love about Florida is that is ok for your house to be a robin’s egg blue! And another is its spectacular flowers! Thanks for bringing a bit of Florida sunshine and color to everyone at Mosaic Monday!
have a great week Angie
Beautiful images to brighten my day, what delightful mosaics they make.
thanks Maggie

The manicured grass, the beautiful flowers, the immaculate homes. Looks like heaven Carol.
in many ways it is – except for the summer heat – it’s like living in a sauna in the summer
Very colourful flowers and a beautiful butterfly to complete the set.
Lovely shots. That sky is so pretty.
Exceptional beauty everywhere!!!!

thanks Dawn – hope you have a wonderful Sunday!
A beautiful drive Carol … and so perfectly Florida! I miss the bright colors, the fluffy white clouds (they really do look different in Florida) and the green (at least that will come back here in Oregon….there’s still some, but we need rain!).
hope you have a great week Sallie
