    My climbing yellow rose still has a couple of buds. I don't know if they will make it before the frost gets them. They are protected behind the house so we shall see. I took this picture when it was raining this afternoon.

    I'll keep my fingers crossed that the frost stays away long enough for it to bloom Polly.

    Hopefully it will bloom before the frost gets it, they are pretty tough.

    It's funny how some of the last flowers of Fall are more precious than when the thing is in full bloom.

    The budded rose is beautiful in its promise. A beautiful example of a picture being worth a thousand words.

    It is still with us today. I was almost afraid to look out tomight. We have had thunder storms and strong winds the last two days. It is supposed to be warmer the next three days so keep your fingers and toes crossed.
