Wild Roses

The wild roses are in full bloom now. They have been for a few days but I have been too busy to get a picture. I made the time and got one yesterday. Everything seems more fragrant this year. More than usual. Wish I could link the smell, they are very sweet this year. Taken 6/5/2006.

We saw a lot of these over in eastern Washington. They are so sweet.

Ssm, your pictures are sure creating some strong, nostalgic feelings for this old boy who grew up in the short grass country. I still have your wild plum blossoms as my computer screen background. Also the other day one of your postings seemed to show some sweet clover with a sprinkling of sweet sage. The aroma of this combination when you were sitting close to the cutter bar on the old horse- drawn mower was another smell that I'll never forget. I note that all your pictures seem to be copyrited and with a dire warning about reproduction. Are you gonna sue me?

I just have the copyright there for my protection. I have no problem with people using them on their desktop. I just want protection from commercial use.

Lovely photo - ours are blooming, too. They tell me here that the river is at its peak when the wild roses are blooming. What if you're not near a river?

I guess they bloom when they are damn well ready.

Twas the scent of blossoms that made me think.
What most important date did I blink?
The long lost look of that momma cow told me why,
Find a florist,do or die.
Thirty miles from town, no florist to be found. Mother nature, your way I'm bound.
wild roses, buttercups all, a little paint brush, I need you all.
Honey, for you, look what I found,
Tonight dinners on me we have reservations in town.
I'm skating on ice and throwing the dice.
Every time I see an IGA, I'm reminded I need a PDA so that that when the blossoms bloom, I am not doomed.

This old tractor sitting by what is called the Cook Camp has always intrigued me. There are a few old tractors laying around these hills but this one has always fascinated me. Taken 10/16/2007.
