Roses

For some reason, my roses have had huge blooms on them and as I walk around our neighborhood, I noticed that is the same for most of the bushes I see.  Not sure of the reasons--probably water and weather related but they have been extra beautiful this year.

This peace rose bush often only has one bloom at a time,
but this year it has had several throughout the blooming season.

Roses remind me of my grandparents as the main house I think of when I remember them had two or three rows of roses in the front yard.  I loved them then and planted these roses to remind me of those beautiful ones.
