SUNSET AND ROSES














Please join Beverly at How Sweet the Sound to learn how you can help with Charlie's Miracle Makeover

After a thunderstorm late Wednesday afternoon the sunset was breathtaking. The roses on the fence have started to bloom again after the much needed rain. Raindrops were still clinging to the  pink roses and the orange sky from the thunderstorm made an eerie sunset, a beautiful sunset. A sunset to gaze upon and reflect and give thanks for all Blessings in my life.

I hope you will take time to visit Beverly's blog and learn how you can help Charlie.

    If you get more rain than you need, send it to Fort Worth. It is terrible how our grass, flowers, even our trees are dying.
