Tower Hill

Our family went with some good friends to Tower Hill Botanical Gardens today. What a beautiful place. If you have never been to a place that is blossoming while the world around you isn't yet, I would advise you to seek one out. The greenhouses were full of flowers, lemons and oranges. The surrounding gardens are still holding on to their blooms, except the Daffodils which are just now

starting their frenzy. There are frog ponds and tree swings and all of those good natured things that lend themselves to contemplation and/or goofing around. There are statues sprinkled throughout the woods, lending the place an ancient, secretive feel. Even on vacation week, I still felt a bit in awe when I found cupid hiding among the trees.
