I'm not a fan of that word on anything, to be honest, and I detest political signs of any nature. You even had cranky gulls - maybe they didn't like the dune traffic either - LOL. Your flower photos are gorgeous! piecefulwendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02256164519304112032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5045426307379086704.post-30074499091369603542022-08-06T07:40:24.411-07:002022-08-06T07:40:24.411-07:00Those are some gorgeous roses.

And I'm with you in the public use of the 'f' word (and I'm not sorry either!). I'm afraid I've been known to risk my life by telling young people to 'watch your mouth' - a kneejerk reaction that was common when my boys were testing the waters. <br />Another pretty quilt finish and a perfect spot for a glamour shot too.<br />That chicken looks so good so might have to run that one by Resident Chef.<br />And oh - those roses. I can almost smell them!Magpie's Mumblingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09852241848575954128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5045426307379086704.post-49117935905086306922022-08-05T13:13:23.161-07:002022-08-05T13:13:23.161-07:00Those yummy tomatoes look like SunGolds?

Looking forward to the quilt shop post, I think we visited that shop last time we were in Oregon, but my memory is a bit dim on that point. Those roses were gorgeous. Thankfully our neighbors mostly fly the American flag proudly and quite a few fly a version that commemorates fire and other first responders. It's all volunteer firefighters around here and they do a yeoman's job.Quilting Babciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16225825007525655805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5045426307379086704.post-77539295579617389732022-08-05T12:32:37.727-07:002022-08-05T12:32:37.727-07:00I live in Ohio, with neighbors who have a yard ful...I live in Ohio, with neighbors who have a yard full of flagpoles carrying a whole series of really offensive political flags, right on a very busy road. can't imagine the mentality that finds this kind of display acceptable. I try to live and let live, but this really takes the cake.<br />Your pictures of the roses, especially, are breathtaking! I can almost smell that heavenly scent. I spent many years maintaining hybrid roses with little to no scent and realized too late that the heirlooms were where I should have started.

We had a lovely kitty that hid whenever anyone came around. The boys were young so we had to keep the hiding places available at a moments notice in case friends came along.
