Yellow Rose of Winter

In the depth of winter, I finally learned that within me there lay an invincible summer.

Funny-- when I quote Camus of late, it has been a little less optomistic. ;-)

Miss you!

That was just what I needed to see this morning...it it like -5 here! I am such a summer girl; I need some inspiration to make it to spring (and it's not even technically winter yet!). Thanks for brightening my chilly day!

When I saw these photos, I looked out to my back yard to the yellow roses that Barry and I planted the Fall before last to honor Flo. In them I saw a lifetime of love, strength and beauty. Thank you for this most magnificent reminder of this great love, this great life... and an invincible summer! xo!

That is a seriously cool series of photos. Totally worthy of an award in a photo contest.
