Colors

This month I have been thinking about all the beautiful colors in the local flower gardens, the sunsets, and even the wildflowers in the ditches. Sometimes it’s hard to know what color to use to describe these blessings of Mother Nature. Anyway, my quiz this time is fairly simple. Each of the various colors I am listing in alphabetical order fits under one of the larger categories of: Blue, Brown/Tan, Green, Purple, Red, or Yellow. Just answer which one of those broad categories of color each one matches the closest. The answers are here.
