Abstract Thursday

I liked the starburst effect of this large Geranium Flower; most perennial Geranium flowers are small; I rather like this bigger more visible flower. The center makes a nice design.

Today we celebrate the USA, the 4th of July. The small towns often bring people together to celebrate with a parade of floats, bike riders, fire engines, along with special cars, and trucks. Rockaway Beach draws thousands of visitors for its parade, Weinie Dog races, beach activities, and a huge fireworks display. Ellie loves it all. It was nice having all three of our adult children together today, none of grandchildren were able to come down this year, just GG, Ellie. I added a photo of them at the parade in extra. Ron was in the shade so the tape in the Optune didn't melt in the warm sunny day.
