This rose was such a deep red, I was trying to get contrast in
the picture but there are no highlights... just that beautiful deep crimson red.
This was made yesterday. I suppose I can say I did take a few seconds to
smell the roses yesterday but unfortunately there is no scent in this one.
Today I'm posting some totally random photos, some things I ran across recently.

| A few days ago I was looking through one of my favorite magazines, Traditional Home, and saw some blue shades for walls that I liked. I was reminded that I had bought a couple of years ago some "oops" Benjamin Moore paint in the shade here called "Serenity". Sounds good to me for the walls of my studio. Benjamin Moore paints are a little more pricey but I do really like their colors and coverage. The man at the store said the wrong color was mixed for a customer. Only $5 a gallon instead of $40+ a gallon. Just had to share this. ;-) |

| My dearest Eileen, may I have this dance? Clint's mom with a dolfin in 2005. Can you believe as I type this, today at the age of 88 she leaves Florida for a cruise. |

Tired of dancing, it was time for Picasso and Eileen to go for a swim. I like what she wrote under the picture: Picasso went for a swim, I held on to his flippers. ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ |

You never need to thank me for reading your blog, Cindy. It is always a pleasure! Recently I had the walls of my living room and dining room painted a blue-green hue called celadon which I find calming.
It's wonderful to see the joy on Eileen's face as she frolics in the water with the dolphin. Let's all make a vow to keep our zest for life always. Have a safe and happy weekend, dear friend Cindy!
What a beautiful rose! Makes me wish I had a garden :)
Have a wonderful weekend too, Cindy. The rose is wonderful.
Greetings Sabine
hi cindy! nice photos!
i tried painting my kitchen a light blue a few years ago, but it looked more like a baby boy's bedroom. now i try the samples first.=)
I'd love to swim with dolphins! But first I should learn to swim :(
Gorgeous Rose, flowers have the best colours in nature!

The rose is beautiful! You can darken the black in the flower if you like but I like it! I think it's gorgeous.
Thanks everyone for your comments!
Shady, the color celadon sounds beautiful. I am taking a vase in the car with me when we move that I believe is celadon pottery. It has the greenish glaze. I'm feeling positive about the blue color for the room. :-) Thank you! (i know, i can't help) it :~D
Emma, thank you for the blogger award, this am I sent you an email, I have a question. I'd remembered you talking about some fear driving near the water several months ago if I am not mistaken. I feel that way sometimes, too.
