Just Joey

After a busy weekend, a quieter start to the week. It’s been good to sit and chat with the traveller, and it feels just like old times. He always was one to walk in after a long absence and just pick up where he left off, as though he’d only been in the next room and not thousands of miles away. Later on this afternoon he disappeared in my car to go and join our daughter-in-law in picking up granddaughter #2 from school (her request). While he was gone I slipped out into the garden to take some photos of the roses after the gentle rain we’ve had.

This showy Just Joey rose is in my front garden and tends to stop passers by in their tracks as they bend over to see if it is scented (it is). The sun had come out by this time, and I love photographing it when the sunlight is shining through the petals.
