Today is my friend Joyce's birthday, so I stopped by to drop off a card and share a hug with her. While she was busy making coffees for customers I grabbed a shot this flower that's just outside her shop. We have been friends for somewhere between 8-10 years. We can be thankful for the flowers and good friends that add beauty to our lives. Here is a link to a couple of photos of the birthday girl: http://www.pbase.com/image/63067057
