It blooms here quite proficiently wherever it is planted and is the time of plant that can be a bush or a tree or a vine. I've never seen any rose plants here. I don't think roses would fare quite so well. There are very few plants that can handle the heat and dust of this country. Heck, some people can't even take it. :) Ha! Have a happy day.

This post is no exception. A quiet, relaxing time together, with a picnic you didn't have to put together...what could be better! I love how you captured it all for us to enjoy to, and I smiled as I read the part of your husband rolling his eyes. A familiar gesture in this home since I started blogging:)<br /><br />The home with the porch would be one of my favorite styles of architecture too. I think a wrap around porch says "welcome" to all who pass by. Yes, I agree with you, Groupon is a very good thing.Just a little something from Judyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07436711032386582707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6365611908359581565.post-55663439605645347822011-05-26T21:02:22.299-04:002011-05-26T21:02:22.299-04:00It looks like you had a wonderful time and meal in...It looks like you had a wonderful time and meal in a very pretty spot!<br /><br />I love Groupon and have scored some good deals through it, Kim.
