We once had a swarm of bee decscend on our lot at the Salton Sea when we were in our motorhome. It was very scary. Brought all the animals in and called the bee people and they came out and got rid of the swarm. He said in no time they would be in our building and everywhere. It is very much Fall here and ready to snow any day. Leaves are still on but todays weather is taking many off. Yes take one day at time and do what you can.Here I Am Carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00012970808535383471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5353873250655389819.post-56085640149765915892013-10-10T21:30:01.292-04:002013-10-10T21:30:01.292-04:00I love your sweet old`fashioned roses, and I hope ...I love your sweet old`fashioned roses, and I hope you can have more and more moments of joy as time goes by.sweetbayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06248743114944736346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5353873250655389819.post-66796286698470942492013-10-07T20:21:04.106-04:002013-10-07T20:21:04.106-04:00The roses are beautiful, Lorraine!
