Our rose is still with us, despite having suffered a one-inch rainfall and then a number of frosts. This may be my last rose picture of the year, because right afterwards, Jammer knocked off a half-dozen petals with a swipe of her tail.

At the half-way point of our six-miler on my final day at work. Mario V. in red, Peter F. in black.

Some of us took some walking breaks on the way back.
