I was happy to find this flower in bloom in one of the containers on my back porch over the weekend.  This perennial hasn’t bloomed in several years and after the harsh winter of 2014, I wasn’t expecting to see it this year either.  What a delightful surprise!

 

Memorial Day 2014_small
Happy Memorial Day and thank you to my dad for his service to our country during World War II.
I have no idea why but he always called this holiday “McMorial Day” in jest!  Was he possibly working at McDonald’s after retirement from the U.S. Postal Service and he didn’t tell me?

….would not be a big fancy home in an exotic location.  It would be a tiny cottage with a white picket fence, flowers, and a balcony overlooking the ocean.  Yep, something just like this!

Nope … never get tired of walking along the beach … looking for seashells, watching the gulls, dipping my toes in the ocean!
