Flowers for Mom

While I mowed the front yard and trimmed the weeds, Graham came out and asked if he could pick some flowers for Tina.

Last night I got home a little early and decided to take advantage of the sunlight. While I mowed the front yard and trimmed the weeds, Graham came out and asked if he could pick some flowers for Tina. I said sure and he set about cutting off roses, rhododendron blooms and whatever else he could find in the yard. Thomas came out after a little while and suggested that arranging them nicely for a picture would make good wallpaper for Tina’s computer. Soon they were both enthusiastically arranging flowers for pictures. The results were pretty good. The light was low but some of the details are nice. I also added a few photos to my Spring Flowers album on Flickr.

This guy also had a three-legged pit bull with him. It took me several minutes before I noticed the snake wrapped around his neck. He claimed the dog liked having the snake wrapped around him but the dog wasn’t too keen when he demonstrated for everyone.

I declined to inform him of TriMet’s anti-pet rules.
