I love to spend the longest day of the year at the beach. Looking out to the sea with no earthly interference to the light, the day is lengthened and the light stays longer.

We watched the sunset amidst the dramatic clouds, feeling fortunate that it was not overcast and hidden like it can be this time of year. We savored the last fiery lines of light as the sun gave up the fight for light and the darkness began to rule the night.

My rose arbor along my front sidewalk is in its full glory, saturated with blooms and filling the air with perfume! When I walk under the trellis, the fragrance is stunning and takes me out of this world and transports me to heaven.

The name of this climbing rose is City of York. It is a classic, old fashioned English rose, sometimes called The Wedding Rose.
