The Smelling Like a Rose Weekly Link Round-up




Take a step out my back door, and you will smell roses. My Tombstone roses are in bloom. They cover two large sections of fence, and as the years pass, they will continue to grow and cover even more. They're gorgeous in the spring, and I'm always glad when our travels don't take us out of town at this time of year. I miss their glorious bounty otherwise.

It's been a busy couple of weeks, and I have a lot of posts to write, so instead of blathering away about this and that, I'll just mosey on out to the corral and see about getting these links rounded up for you. Head 'em up! Moooooooove 'em out!
