Not only are the roses exquisite, but they're so healthy too. I hope you're having a great week, Sylvia. Greetings from a cold South Africa (Jo)
Beautiful rose gardens and yes, I have had the privilege of seeing Mt. St Helen and she is indeed beautiful. Lovely post, Sylvia ...

Tremendous! Mountains in distance always have such appeal, don't you think. Calling out to us with "see, you too can rise above it all!"

Oh what a lovely day out! Gorgeous flowers and a very beautiful composition of the mountain view!
It looks like Portland knows how to grow roses Sylvia ... beautiful captures of beautiful blooms.
wow! beautiful roses (to replace the tulips in washington, perhaps?) loved the roof in the 2nd photo!
what a beautiful world of roses! :)
Excuse the pun Sylvia but it looks like you’ve had a rosy start to your move in Oregon! :)
Oh the Rose Festival! It's been years since we've been to it. Looks like everything was blooming beautifully right on cue for the big day. Lovely photos,... can't wait to be back.
Oh my, you've outdone yourself with this post. Gorgeous photos. And you do know how to shoot flowers - from down low! Great work. I'm guessing that you're settled in and enjoying life!
Beautiful photos Sylvia! Love those colors...
Happy to see something beautiful!
I think that's two weeks in a row when I made Mr. Linky work properly! :-)

Ah, the Portland Rose Garden in the rose City, with a view of Mount Hood! Lovely! It's gotta' be the best time of the year to be in Portland
All your photos are stunning as usual. Mt. Helen looks very beautiful, but wasn't this the volcano that erupted some years ago?
Have a great week, Sylvia!
