It's going to be beautiful again today! We planted six rose bushes right under our big front oriel window two years ago. Their height is now three feet, so they are just under the window, and they're in bloom--wonderful scent. Are you doing landscaping at your new digs?

Incidentally, if you like raspberries, LET ME KNOW! We have a thicket of canes that I cleaned out at the end of winter. They are everbearing, so they fruit in the late spring and again through fall. Last year we froze five pounds of berries, gave a few pounds away, and ate a few pounds right off the canes. I have counted sixty new canes which will bear fruit this fall. I'm going to be overwhelmed with berries in the very near future. If you want to stop by and pick some up, let me know--I'll get them the night before for you. They're delicious!
