Roses growing on side of building

We took our climbing rose (David Austin Himilayn Musk) and dug it out from one location two falls ago, and replanted it on the side our garage. We then ran a high grade thin wire, the entire width of that side of the garage, we used eye screws to run the wire through and tighten at each end. We ran 5 rows across the side of the garage 2 feet apart going up. The rose has climbed all over these guide wires and has completely covered it this year. It is hanging full of buds, the show should be outstanding in a few weeks. Will take a photo and submit.

Are you referring to the rambler 'Paul's Hymalayan Musk'? If so, it will no doubt be a sight to behold. I have seen what this rambler can do and it is nothing short of spectacular. I would love to see pictures of yours!
