Rose Bushes Getting Ready

A nice walk was the beginning of a peaceful day. The Point Mallard Park has planters with rose bushes scattered all around the area. As we walked past the bushes, we noticed they were all freshly covered with new rose bush leaves. They are a pretty bright red.





We finished the walk and decided to check the mileage for the effort. It turned out to be just under 4 miles. WOW it did not seem that long. On top of that the OFM had no special aches or pains from it. Maybe he is getting stronger or healing faster. We can always hope.



How about another painting to enjoy? This is Christmas Cacti.



The day was great and we did a nice amount of trying to have tooooo much fun in the warm sun.

  4. Better living through chemistry - does DuPont make ibuprofen?
    Anyway - I'm no expert but I do appreciate and respect artistic talent - I believe "The Christmas Cacti" might be your best effort yet that I have seen.

  5. Just a note here. I was some happy to know that you are staying near the kids. BUT!!! It seems like every other day there is a new weather event in the area where you are. My first thought is "uh, oh. Hope Barney doesn't suffer!" The castle is not too safe a place for you during those storms. You know I will be watching the weather! I'm a little fond of the OFM!
