Rainy Day Roses
We are under a winter storm watch, temperature of 33 degrees with freezing rain falling all night. My tough Texas roses don’t care, they are taking it in stride, soaking it up. They think it is a nice change from … Continue reading

A Day On the Lake

Clouds Over the Lake
You might be a knitter if you see fleeces in the sky. Fleeces with a silver lining.
