Summer visit to the gardens

It's been so hot here this summer with no relief in sight.

Early morning and late evening walks are the only time to get out and enjoy the outdoors.

The other way to keep cool is a dish of yummy and cold gelato.







Here are a few recent photos at the Atlanta Botanical Gardens.

Piedmont Park Meetup

The meetup on Sunday was so much fun. We had planned a picnic at Piedmont Park. A big concern was that this was going to be during the Dogwood festival. Lot's of crowds and the challenges of parking. Not to mention changeable weather in April. But everything turned out just perfect.

We had a large turnout, great food and gorgeous weather. I had planned for us to meet at the gazebo (which is off a walkway in the middle of the lake. An easy landmark to find. I was hoping we could just have our picnic there. At is turned out we transformed the gazebo into "Lolita Island". It was fun watching the people walk by and starting or, even better, taking photos of us.

After about 2 hours a big group of us went to the Atlanta Botanical Gardens for some sightseeing among the gorgeous flora and fauna. Especially loved the orchid house.

Spring has Sprung

It's starting to look and feel like Spring here in Atlanta. The trees and flowers are all budding. It's the most beautiful time of year. The Atlanta Botanical Gardens orchid house is in full bloom. This is the perfect time of year to wear flowered dresses and show off like the azealas and flowering trees. Here are a few recent photos.
