Chicago leaves

Margaret Rose Keating c/o Irish American News



Margaret Rose Keating, 2012 Chicago Rose will be having a farewell party on 3rd August. The Irish American website gives us some idea of Margaret Rose's background in media.

It could be Margeret Rose 2012 Keating.

Julia Rose update

I hope you are keeping up with Julia Rose. Who she? The Chicago and Mid-West Rose for 2010. (I'm confused, slightly!). She has a lively blog going on at http://thejuliaroseshow.com/ .

And if you go to this part of her blog, you can read about her selection process and, more importantly, see many photographs.

Very interesting.

We are grateful to The Depaulia for news about Julia Rose, 2010 Midwest Rose. I'm a bit confused myself, as the official Rose site names Julia the Chicago Rose!. I'm sure they are the same thing.

It seems we have another Rose who is pretty good with the odd quip or two - "I just take one small step at a time," said Rose. "If you look at a mountain to scale, it's going to seem impossible to climb. But if you try little by little, you'll reach the top", a quote from the Depaulia article.

This, and more, from Courtney Sturgeon at The Depaulia.

The Julia Rose Show

This is Julia Rose who is the US Midwest Rose for 2010. She will be coming to Ireland to compete in the regional heats.

She has a great website at The Julia Rose Show.

I think there may be fun ahead.
