Roses, Roses and more Roses





  My Friend called me up and asked if I wanted to come over to practice tossing the dice on his craps table. I said, “Sure.” I was trying out different things but after a while I started to get tired. I had already spent the morning at Cardiac Rehab exercising for an hour and a half so we took a break. “Let’s go make you up a bouquet. He has this Fantastic garden. He loves growing Roses. So we went on his back porch where he had already picked some of his roses and started putting them in a couple of vases. He had done this for me last year and it made my whole apartment smell Great!
  I had my camera with me so he took me on a tour of his garden to show me all the different varieties he has. I don’t remember the names of them but each one had a different smell.

  Before I came to the Roses I saw his Lilies. They smelled Awesome.


   I began snapping pictures as I went along walking through his garden. Here are some of the pictures I took.
 

  He had other kinds of flowers growing. These purple flowers were growing on a vine next to his house.

   This is one of many Lilly bushes he has in his yard.

      And More Roses


  This butterfly loved whatever kind of flower this was. He didn’t even flinch when I took his picture. 

 These are really cool looking.

   After we were though walking around his garden, I took the bouquet of flowers and left. I had to pay some bills since it is the first of the month. I thanked him and drove off. I had places to go but I didn’t know where to put the vase of Roses he gave me. I thought about it and came up with a great Idea. You can make your car smell like you’re in Heaven.  I have a cup holder on my dash. It sits right in front of the vents. I was lucky enough that the small vase just fit in the cup holder perfectly. I turned on the air and the whole car filled up with the scent of Roses. Try it if you can. It put me in a great mood.
