Wow. I'm behind in my readings. 🫤

Loved the photos of your four-legged family and the roses. Our roses here have given up their annual battle with the pounding sunshine. Come winter, they'll make another comeback.

Favorite tip? Frankly, I enjoy the whole of each weekly post. The animal training, the stories, the victory laps when a new story comes out, etc. 🙂

I always grow roses no matter where I live. Oma always loved her roses out front. When she passed I kept them thriving in her honor. She always saw the beauty in life and the lesson of working hard for something beautiful. I miss her so. Blessings

I have been growing roses for the last few years basically since we got a real backyard. I have a collection of a lot of different varieties but I like the hydrid tea roses the best. Tod liked the rambling knockout roses.

I am have few blog posts dedicated to the roses. I am considering doing another.

As for oma and opa, I miss them too. Although I don't remember the roses as much as the tomatoes, that really odd banana tree and the hummingbird feeder that was outside the kitchen window.
