We have two red tulips in our yard right now. Hardly a spring bouquet! It's been such a cold spring.
But thanks again to Cousin Ken, I'm posting a lovely macro shot of his. It's worth enlarging. I have no clue what kind of flower this is but I'm submitting it to Today's Flowers anyway.
We are leaving for our trip to Alaska on Friday! There is a lot to do to get ready so I suspect I won't be posting (or commenting) a lot. When we get back I will have so many pictures to share! We are all very excited to be so close to departure. Even if I don't comment, I do check blogs and think of you, my friends.
I hope everyone has a marvelous Mother's Day tomorrow!

Hi Loran, I'm so glad you are going to Alaska. I think we are going there next year...
Happy Mother's Day!!!! We're home from the beach --and I'll post in the morning. Had a wonderful time --but it's nice to be home.

Thanks for posting my photos and thank you to all for your remarks. The flower is a Desert or New Mexico Thistle. Happy Mothers Day and have a ball on the trip. Our love to you all,
"Cousin Ken"
A sweet little flower with a beautiful color :)
Wonderful capture!
Interested to hear that it's a thistle. I thought it looked a bit like a Scottish thistle viewed from the top.
Looking forward to seeing your Alaska trip.
