Today was Valentine’s Day so I have been thinking about red roses.

This morning at the welcome desk at the office they were giving out pens with fabric roses on the end of them. They were all shades of pink and red.

However, I like real roses much better so here are some pictures I have taken of them.

Here are some roses from my rose garden. These are on my Mr. Lincoln rose bush. I have also been thinking about this rose bush as Saturday was Lincoln’s birthday.

I think we all like raindrops on red roses.

My Mr. Lincoln rose bush grows very tall. Here is a rose in the eaves.

The Mr. Lincoln rose blooms are very fragrant. Sometimes I have to stop and smell the roses.

I will add one rose that is not my own. This picture of a red rose was taken at the Tracy Community Rose Garden.

Happy Valentine’s Day,

Steven
