Like Tina, I am no flower expert, so I often don't know what a flower is called when I see it. But I always try to get photos of new flowers, and new versions of old ones. I think that my very favorite flower is the azalea that my real estate agent gave me for …

For some reason, I'm feeling very oppositional today. And I caught all these opposites on our shopping trip this afternoon! My readers will know that I am opposed to the government's insistence that we all drive electric cars, for reasons discussed in many previous posts here.

Since our local smoke is gone, the following photos are from our trip to Montana and back in September of 2017.
