We walked to the Garden over the weekend while it was warm. Just thought I would document her style - prepared to bird watch, prepared for the blinding sun, prepared for any slight windy chill.
There are a few things blooming at the Garden - I think I have some pictures of that to post. But, here is a tree I've always wanted to take a picture of. It is easy to get into a routine in how you walk around the Garden. We used to always come in and go to the left - that is probably because Spring was the first season we encountered when we moved here and most of the spring blooming plants are to the left, so is this tree. But as the kids have grown older we started going to the right because that is the direction of the ducks and fish and sheep statues and children's garden and fountains. And, usually everyone is too tired to make it all the way around - and so I had forgotten about this tree. That limb just rests right there on the ground!
Remember what I said about everyone being too tired to make it around the whole garden? Here they are fighting over whether or not the wagon seats should be up. We just stood there, took their picture and let 'em duke it out.
I guess he lost.

Very cool tree! Olivia was also prepared for a sudden growth spurt, by the looks of the cuffs on those pants :)
Another good use for your tongue, to keep your glasses from falling off your face. Mimi
