Random Tuesday Thoughts & Wordful Wednesday
If you missed them, last Saturday I shared
PINK & pastel roses at Happily Retired Gal
The first pair of photos below show the first 3 blossoms of the season on my Mr. Lincoln rose bush in varying stages. I find each beautiful in its own way.

Color Carnival and My World
2. Molly & I have been for a long walk already and she's had a chance to play with a variety of dogs in the neighborhood while I visited with their 'people' and took some photos. As a result ... I'm quite late to post today since it's almost noon already.
3. I started this post a couple of hours ago (at 10:12am to be exact) but was interrupted by a call from my sister almost immediately with questions about labeling photos with Windows Viewer ... something I showed her how to do while she was home but that she didn't practice at all. Apparently she tried to call yesterday but found she had no cell signal in Yosemite Valley. They were at the Lodge for brunch and it was raining ... then it started to hail! If it snows over the next couple of days they may have trouble getting over the Sierra Nevada Mountains and on to Death Valley as planned.
4. As it turns out, if she'd HAD a signal we wouldn't have connected anyway because I left my cell phone at home by mistake when I went to class yesterday and didn't realize it until much later while running errands on my way home ... stopping for gas, groceries, Molly's Duck & Sweet Potato kibble & treats.
5. I've spent hours locating and backing up photos I feared might have been lost when my Dell Inspiron 9100 (suddenly & unexpectedly) died a few weeks back ... and I'm very much relieved to have recovered them. If you don't back up photos on a regular basis, I urge you to do so ... seriously!
6. Methinks it's time to share my Just Joey roses from this season ... the bush is LOADED with blossoms at the moment and smells delightful! Below are three different views ... first straight out of the camera then with Poster Edges.
Hope you're each having a wonderful week!

A lovely post! I wonder why one rose fared so much better in the rain than the other? I like the Joey roses the best, love the pastel color. I think you predicted in an earlier post that your sister would be calling with questions! I bet you both finish each other's thoughts, as well!
Wonderful series of photos, interesting effects!
Absolutely lovely post, always a great pleasure to visit.
You have beautiful flowers, wonderful photos. Thanks for sharing!
Love all your beautiful flowers! I hope all has been well for you. Sorry I haven't had much time for visiting lately.
If this is what retired life is like for you, I can't even imagine how busy you were while still teaching! My goodness! But oh do you sound happy!!
