The ripe,red apples hang over the front entrance of my friend Elinor's house, forming an arch.Just Being Friends
"Friendship happens in that special moment
when someone reaches out to another,
trusts, comforts, believes in another,
and makes a special difference
that no one else can make". Anon.
I love this creamy yellow and white dahlia that was blooming in the back yard.
Last week I spent time with my friend Elinor as we celebrated her retirement from the Northwest Inland Writing Project. I also joyfully toured her gardens on Saturday and captured the beauty of her late summer flowers and one special tree in some photos.
I got to enjoy double hollyhocks,
single hollyhocks in a beautiful pink,
brightly colored daliahs,
and Mr. Lincoln himself.
