My son was busy doing his contracting jobs in California and missed the deadline for Mother’s Day. However, he made up for it by sending this lovely colorful bouquet of flowers and a box of chocolate covered strawberries.
The flowers arrived in a vase with plant food and a water-soaked “keep fresh” soil packet and the chocolate strawberries arrived in an insulated package with an ice packet that was still partially frozen. My son did good as far as I’m concerned, late or not! 🙂
It is a nice day today. The temperature got up to over 106° this afternoon. We are running the A/C (for the dogs, of course). Click on the image to enlarge.

I bought several stems of these beautiful Gerbera Daisies at the supermarket flower concession today. I put them in my crystal vase on the sofa table in the great room. The color mix is quite pleasant to my eye – how about yours? Click on the image to enlarge.
From one veteran to all those who have served, we thank you. We especially honor those who did not return from the battlefields who paid the ultimate price for our freedoms. God bless them.
This is the native compass cactus up on the hill behind the house. It is hidden up there and requires a trip into the “outback,” our cholla and palo verde forest up there in order to catch a glimpse of it. I got this picture today with only one of several buds open. Click on the image to enlarge.
