Pink and Orange

Flowers and raindrops are made for each other.

The flowers are Geraniums in one of my planters.

I will let them speak for themselves.

Finally a beautiful male Baltimore Oriole.I have had more Orioles this year than I have had for many years.I so enjoy seeing and hearing them.I still hear an occasional one,but they must be busy nesting because I don't get to see them now.

Since Sunday,June 16,is Father's day,may I wish any fathers who read this a very Happy Father's Day.

I had a wonderful father to guide me as I was growing up and I have many great memories of him.

When my son came along I had the privilege to watch as Jake was a good father to him.Jake and Steve were more than just father and son,they were very good friends and for that I am thankful.Along came a granddaughter,Kai, and Jake once again was a wonderful Grandpa and loved every minute of his role. Today I watch as Steve does a great job of being a Dad and friend to his daughter and so the cycle continues.I have been blessed to have many good men in my life who guided with love and tenderness.
