Aid Station by Goldstone Mine.
The ranch sits on the border of Idaho and Montana, right as Idaho is tapering into the chimney shape at the midway up the state on the east side. The border is the continental divide, which is the top of the waterways. Water to the West runs to the Pacific. Water to the East runs eventually to the Atlantic. Soooo... This weekend a fairly new and fast-growing event took place along the continental divide. It's an endurance race like no other.
I hope to paint these mountain flowers soon. The red flowers are called Indian Paintbrush.
I purchased these roses on clearance last year. I never planted them. I thought they would die over the winter. The lesson I learned was: don't complain about life and bloom where you are planted. I am going to plant them in a nice sunny spot in the ground.

I have a variety of flowers in pots around the house. I always love the red and very patriotic looking geraniums in the summer.
My son gave me the purple and pink petunias for Mother's Day. Love the gorgeous colors.
And since I took this photo, the roses are in full bloom. I didn't even prune them last year, hence the dead rose hip from last year. Just love the colors in June. No wonder so many people get married in June. The garden flowers are so pretty.
