We began and ended in antique stores, but in between we visited a farmer's market in Canby and a rose garden in St. Paul.
We bought a pint of local strawberries from the market. We had them with our breakfast the next morning at the hotel. I had a great strawberry waffle, thanks to the Best Western waffle maker.
Now just enjoy. Raindrops on roses. You'll have to imagine the fragrance.
Very lovely roses Linda. I specially liked that deep purple one trying to hide it's head - Dave
ReplyDeleteThere's something about the image of roses that allows me to imagine that I'm smelling them. Beautiful pictures, Linda.
ReplyDeleteBeatiful!
ReplyDeleteGlad to know about this rose garden. We did the Portland Rose Gardens yesterday with our guests.
ReplyDeleteOne word: Gorgeous! Okay, two words: Stunning!
ReplyDeleteOh wow! I really love roses. It used to be my favorite scent, but I've never found a cologne that came close. These roses are just beyond beautiful. I wish I could be there. But since I can't, thank you for showing them to us. Now that I know you worked at a strawberry factory, I have to smile that you still like them. :-)
ReplyDeleteWhat gorgeous closeup-love that double bloom!
ReplyDeleteLinda, what a beautiful field trip. I can almost smell the roses through the monitor. Gorgeous.
