Hibiscus Center

....for Flower Friday. 

I just adore the red of these flowers, but it is so hard to capture accurately. 

Big thunderstorms rolled through last night and brought a cool change.  Today was just splendid with no humidity.  It looks like the 4th might even be tolerable.  Usually it is so hot and muggy it makes one think twice about going out to fireworks.  We used to go years ago, but recent years, not so much. Now we watch on TV along with the National Symphony Concert.  

Cheers to the weekend!  Wishing everyone in the U.S. a very happy and safe Independence Day holiday and to my wonderful Sis down under, a very happy birthday.
