SEPT 22 VISIT TO THE DAHLIA FESTIVAL AT SWAN ISLAND DAHLIAS

 Randy and I made it out to the festival at Swan Island Dahlias and I took lots of picture, about 110!!  I know I cannot show them all here so I am picking the ones I think are the best! So many colors, shapes and sizes of dahlias.  Enjoy the photographs. 


As you can see, they are so lovely!
I did have a bit of bad happen. A bee decided to sting me.
Fortunately, I did not have a severe reaction (forgot my epi pen!) and it had stung me on the back
of my right arm. My whole arm turned red and swelled up fast. 
I took antihistamines and am doing fine.
I do hope you all enjoyed the beautiful flowers.
