The weather cleared in time for me to walk to Bodkins this evening. One garden always smells particularly nice as I walk past, and this beauty is the reason why. Resuming my summer evening walks is one the best parts of being back home again!
Every summer, like the roses, childhood returns.
― Marty Rubin
Beautiful picture of the rose, and a wonderful memory of summer. I passed by a Magnolia tree in my neighborhood and the smell of the blossoms evoked summer when I was a child and pretended that the leaves were the ships of Vikings (the long ships at the movies) Smells can take you back. I enjoy your rambles and your thoughts.
