New Header Graphic

Heading into summer and the roses are blooming like crazy things! All of them are beautiful, but the roses on the bush next to the porch are my favorites. I have no idea the name of this rose, but the bud is pale yellow with a red tint to the edges of the petals. As the bud opens up, the red becomes more pronounced. It's just amazing looking!

I decided it was time to update the look of my website and this blog and to use a picture of one of the buds from that rose bush. I caught it before it opened up into a mature rose -- on the brink, I suppose you could say. I'm hoping that's an apt metaphor for my writing. (metaphor or simile? I can never remember which one is appropriate).

The colors of the website are still okay with the new image, but I'm sure I'll be updating the whole thing in the next week or so. Just to give it a fresh look overall.

Very pretty! I like the change and I love roses, but can't grow them as the deer also love them!
