A Lovely Afternoon
A friend and I enjoyed lunch one afternoon last week at the Olive Garden. Then we went to a favorite flower shop, and the boss agreed to let me make pictures with my new camera. I had a wonderful time admiring all the lovely flowers and playing with my new toy.
At the checkout counter, there was a sweet black cat, Harvey, who used to be a stray. The lady who worked there said he rules the place.
Here are a few of the pictures I made ~
Begonias
Hydrangeas
Orchids
Zinnias
An unusual color verbena
Then we went to my friend's house where I took more pictures from her neighbor's yard.
Iris
Fuschia
We had a wonderful time of fellowship and enjoyed all the beautiful flowers.

Beautiful pictures, Cathy...I love the bleeding heart!
Thanks Deb, you know that's what they thought they were, but I'm not sure that's the right name of the plant.
cathy,
You are getting very good with your camera...
Beautiful pictures...
Thanks Mimi, I really am enjoying it for sure. :)
Oh, what a fun day out! I love poking around flower shops. Please pass on to your friend that her irises are very beautiful; I love the colorful grouping!
The pictures are great but I think the bleeding heart is an fuschia.. The humming birds love them,
Jodi, I just love garden shops too. My friend has some pretty flowers, but these were her next door neighbors. Her yard is loaded with flowers. Oh, and thanks for the sweet Mother's Day wish. I hope you had a Happy Mother's Day.
Nancy, of course, a fuschia ~ I'm not too familiar with those, but thanks for letting me know what they are. I will change that now. :)
Beauty and wonder. Hmmm. :o)
Bless you this day, Cathy.
Beautiful photos, Cathy! What a lovely afternoon you had with your friend!
Hugs,
Kelli
