Gardens

This morning we took advantage of the cool(er) temperatures (meaning that it was bearable, although still hot enough that I could have wrung my clothes out afterward) and headed to the Gardens.  We spent two hours wandering according to Liam’s druthers (which surprisingly did not include any time in the flower fountain, despite my intricate preparations for just such an occasion).  Here are some pictures from the morning:

During a brief respite from all the running I got the chance to take my favorite series of pictures from the day.  I’ll let them speak for themselves.

And then it was time for a nap, for both of us.
