We have many things for which to be thankful. Some are major -- such as family and good health. Others are minor in the total scheme of life, but nice just the same. This rose, Perfect Moment, decided to bloom on Thanksgiving Day, in spite of near-freezing temperatures the night before. The petals are more leathery than normal, but we think this rose picked a perfect moment to bloom.

This is a remarkable flower, with its paradoxical combination of ruggedness and beauty.
First let me say, I missed you guys and happy you are back and doing well. My roses are blooming better now than in the spring. The poor things do not know what season it is.
