In every southern duty station where I served, Honeysuckle was always present. Everywhere. What an intoxicating fragrance.
My sister wears "White Shoulders" and that reminds me of all those Southern bases. Ahhhhhh.

I can smell the honeysuckle swooping in from her front yard in the Ozarks countryside as I daydream about it, so thanks so much for the pleasant memories that your pictures triggered. Thanks!

Reduced in size. Hope you get the idea. 24MB Nikon photos are too big to post.

Cancel all my appointments for the next few weeks.
Going to be very busy. I found a trove of them last year. I'll post more as they open, but not at full resolution.
