A couple hours at the Garden 4-21

Another stellar day here in Oregon, we took our three mile walk, had our toast and then headed north to Silverton to see the Oregon Garden.

Larry wasn’t too excited to go because he knew it was too early for the big bloom that would be seen in another month or so, but me being a lover of plants and flowers AND a photographer I knew I would probably find something to take a picture of, there is always something or other in bloom in a garden in spring. I ended up taking about 150 pictures and we both enjoyed the sunshine and the garden paths and when we got back we relaxed and enjoyed the rest of the day because the weather will be changing.

On the way home we stopped at Costco to look for something and had their hotdog for dinner and their frozen yogurt for dessert…yum.

Hopefully tomorrow I can get some more pictures of the Garden edited and posted, I just threw in these five for now.

Spring and growing things means bugs and every time we head out somewhere we end up clobbered with bugs…Larry has washed the truck two days in a row now.
