Lavender

Eventually this will be a lavender dahlia but as you can see it's not open right yet.  A nice day today and helped out at the Food Bank then went over to the cemetery to see if I could find a few graves for relatives that live far away.  It's only about 10 min. away.  I only found one and was close on a few more, but need to find out who is near to where I am looking.  Sometimes the graves are grassed over or like my Great Grandmother - the stone is completely gone.  She died in 1912, so as you can imagine, Cement stones don't last that long.  
    thank you all for stopping by and for the lovely comments on my sunburst shot yesterday!  thanks for the stars also!!
