A lovely specimen, and the backdop works well, Mary.
Mary MacADNski: A few insect bites in the petals but a gorgeous rose!

A lovely specimen, indeed, Mary. My dad never reached 80, so this is a fine milestone for you, I'm sure, let alone him. Hope you've enjoyed every minute of it!
Mary MacADNski: He is the person who has lived oldest in his family. It was a very special occasion.

My mother reached 80 on 10 March 2011 (for which I arranged quite a bash) and died on 5 June 2011 without much pre-amble. It happens.
Mary MacADNski: I'm sorry to hear that. You must have great memories of the bash with your mother very pleased and happy to see everyone.
What a lovely rose. Hope all went well with your dad's party Mary.
Mary MacADNski: It was really great and my father was extremely happy.
I hope it did all go well Mary!
Mary MacADNski: It was fantastic, Bill. My father was in seventh heaven.
The colours in the Lieutenant Governor's Rose show up beautifully in this shot, Mary.

So happy that you were there to host and celebrate your Dad's 80th. birthday.

My father passed away last week in his 91st.year. Astonishing how quickly the years rush by.
Mary MacADNski: I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. I attended a funeral on this vacation too. Birthdays for aging relatives are a wonderful way to see everyone happy and smiling as usually it is funerals that bring us together otherwise.
Lovely Rose, such contrasting colours.
Mary MacADNski: The lieutenant governors rose garden has some beautiful roses and I visited it just recently for the first time this year.
Oh, so delicate! Great color! love it!
Mary MacADNski: I was astounded at the colour of this one.
Oh, this is gorgeous Mary - such pretty colours
Mary MacADNski: An unusual specimen and so beautiful.
