What More Can I Say!!

I am reading the bible chronologically in the New Living Translation.  Part of yesterdays reading ...

Proverbs 16:
31 Gray hair is a crown of glory;
it is gained by living a godly life.


Well that explains my hair style and colour!!

A Well Travelled Plant

One traditional fragrant rose ...

However lets start it's story. 

During WWII Mum commented every summer that it was the first rose in flower, and smelt beautiful.  In 1952 she married, and moved into their first house in 1953 .... and on Grandma & Granddad's first visit they brought the rose with them as a house-warming gift.  Since then it has moved each time, and now is with me in Exeter.
