Loose Park Rose Garden

This year is our 19th wedding anniversary!  So to celebrate Andy and I took a little weekend trip to Kansas City.  One of the places we visited was the Loose Park rose garden.  It was really beautiful and so fun for me to see all the different types of roses.  The rose garden was started in the 1930s, and it's in the shape of a circle with these stone arbors going all around the outside edge, and with a pretty fountain in the middle.  We had a big heat wave last week and so the roses were suffering a little, I'm sure it would be even nicer in May or June.  I hope you enjoy them as much as I did!

Wreathe then the roses, wreathe,

The beautiful still is ours;

While the stream shall flow,

and the sky shall glow

The beautiful still is ours.
