Betsy and I made our first trip out west back in 2011.  The scenery we enjoyed as we traveled was definitely different from the landscape we have in eastern Tennessee.  There were times when we felt we were driving through the set of a western movie or television show.  When we saw this town (our GPS said it was Laguna, New Mexico) in the distance we just had to pull over and get a picture.

Since we have had many more visits from deer into our yard over the past couple of years, we’ve had to shift many of our roses from the bed in front to containers on our deck.  (So far the deer haven’t climbed onto the deck in search of their snacks!)  Fortunately, the roses seem to be doing fairly well in their containers.  This is Color Magic, one of our favorites.
