| My lovely Oldest daughter Chanda. Here she is being kind enough to hold my purse as well as her own, so I could snap off pics and not have to fuss with my purse) |
On Saturday, my oldest daughter Chanda and myself went to the Sacramento Historical Cemetery where there is a huge antique rose garden, as well as other scattered gardens of all varieties of flowers. They were having the yearly sale of antique roses, and were also running tours of the gardens. The weather was beautiful for it, and we were excited for the day. We went for breakfast, and then found our way down to the cemetery and got in line... it was always at least 60 people deep by the time we got there, but I still managed to get three lovely roses.... not the one I wanted, but maybe next year. Chanda, was kind enough to take photos of all the beautiful roses, flowers and even a few of me while I took photos as well. Together, we have a plethora of lovely images that I want to share with you. My plan is over the next few days to share these images, and on Friday, I shall share what I did with my three new ladies for my garden. I hope you enjoy.

| One of the docents, and a care giver to the roses, tending her plot. We loved how she was in the clothing based on the fact that the cemetery is dated back to the 1800's |

What a lovely day! Nothing smells as good as an old fashioned damask rose! I had three in front of the house and have lost two but the one that remains smells JUST heavenly!
ReplyDeleteLove the roses and other blooms. Chandra took great photos of you. Interesting how peaceful a cemetery can be even though so much sorrow has been experienced there.
ReplyDeleteThank you ladies. I shall tell Chanda how much you enjoyed the photos... look for part two it is on it's way!
