Plein air



A lovely day was spent at Peninsula Park in NE Portland, a stately garden celebrating its 100th birthday this year.  At first glance the climbing roses were white, then revealed soft colors of peach and yellow.  The white ones are called Sally Holmes, the bright orange ones Nina Simone.  I imagine Nina singing with Sally on this Spring day.
