Pink Climber    14x11  o/cb

The rains continue and the gardens are flourishing!  It is too late in the season for some varieties but I am relieved not to have to keep watering.  I see yards with dead shrubs and I am thankful that I did not lose anything to the drought.  It was blessedly short lived here in Michigan compared to other states.

The climbing rose puts forth its best show earlier in the summer but continues some blossoms throughout the summer.  This was a lone cluster that was asking to be painted.
