a rose by any other name














Here are a few pictures for your viewing pleasure. I took the flower pictures at a rose garden in Seattle. I'm kind of a sucker for the rose gardens these days. I planted two roses this year, and they don't look nearly as pretty. All three plants are different, hard to tell but true, I guess you can tell the kind I like. I do have a closet full of green shirts, too.
The other pictures are from the park last night. We were having a little family fun night. I had gotten home earlier in the day from my lovely trip to San Francisco. So fun so fun. Lots of eating, walking, cab/trolley riding, shopping, laughing, site seeing, picture taking, and talking. Look at Jane's blog and Sarah's blog to see pictures. They are professional photographers, so I didn't feel the need to bring my camera. Now, to make dinner. I liked it better when we just ate at restaurants all the time.

Your roses are lovely! So beautiful. And I'm with you on eating at restaurants. Now I had better figure out what the heck to fix for dinner. Sigh.
