Tree Climbing

The yellow bamboo was striking on Sunday.   I think that too much light turns the bamboo yellow, because we saw groves of green bamboo that looked similar but that were shady.  Any smart folks want to tell me if I'm right?  I did a quick google search and couldn't come up with scientific evidence fast enough so gave up.   What can I say?---it's late.

Flannery loves a good climbing tree.  One day I hope she can have her own little grove to hang around in.








What did you love to do as a child?

Fun with Bridges

The zig zag bridge is my "zen" spot at Duke Gardens.  I love how it doesn't take the shortest route between two points--it reminds me to "be in the moment."   The red bridge used to be white, and it was beautiful then.  But now, it just feels so exotic, especially with the yellow bamboo in the background.  I really love it.








Where have you taken some of your favorite photos?

Feeding the Ducks

The weather was just gorgeous on Sunday, so we went to Duke Gardens and fed the ducks with Flanna's BFF.  The girls loved throwing bread and crackers to the ducks, but the ducks were rather picky this time and only seemed to be going for corn (which we didn't have).










How do you most love to spend gorgeous days?
