Flowers by Rodney

There is a man named Rodney that sells flowers on the corner of 10th Street and Penn Avenue right next to my building downtown on Thursdays and Fridays. Today he had these beautiful roses that are the most unusual color I have ever seen. And they were only $5 for a dozen.

I put them in a borrowed vase on my file cabinet. Everyone was asking me what the occasion was. To which I replied, "It's Thursday, and Rodney had roses." :-)

Not every post has to be deep and meanful. This one is about simple pleasures. Enjoy!

Mimi: I'm not even sure Rodney drives . . . at least not to Dayton. :-)
