I have previously posted photos of the beautiful hanging flower baskets downtown Milwaukie. Now I want you to see the flowers at the city hall. There is a lot of pride in the gardens here and all along the downtown Milwaukie streets.
Here is a close up of some of the above flowers
And another one
Bright, cheerful flowers
I think this flower is especially pretty
Now look closer
Wow, huh? I just finishing reading a book (The Hour I first Believed) where the main character told a couple of stories about the good luck of Praying Mantis.

Great pictures, as usual. I love the orange flower, you know I’ll have it as wallpaper. 🙂
Did you just love that new Wally Lamb? God what a great book.
Thanks Joyce. Once again you are welcome to use any of my photos as wallpaper.
Yes, I did love the Wally Lamb book but found it to be too ling. I think I would have liked it better if he hadn’t tried to bring everything nto one story.
What great pictures and pretty flowers. That praying mantis on the rose is great.
I know. How lucky was I?
Great shots!
Thanks Ann!
