It’s easier to notice that each day is special in its own way when death in the air focuses our attention on the things around us. But, days of jubilance are worth extra-special attention. Today is such a day of for us; it’s our 57th wedding anniversary.
One of our ways of enhancing our days of jubilance has been to get a fine arrangement of fresh flowers – one that we can put in the morning light to try to see what the Dutch Masters saw and put on the dinner table to perfume the evening while we reminisce and try to understand our good fortune.
This beautiful arrangement, photographed yesterday, is by Cullen Schneider, an American Master of floral art and owner of Fairwinds Florist in Blue Hill. (Brooklin, Maine)
