There is just something about nature and flowers. The young are not as appreciative as us older folks, but someday they'll come to enjoy these natural beauties just as we do.
This past April we decided to go to VA to Assateague Island. At the end of our stay, we slipped in a visit to the
Norfolk, VA Botanical Gardens while waiting to drop off my daughter at the airport. The spring plants and flowers were just beautiful.
I can't remember all the beauties I saw, but for those I did, I'll put the names in the picture captions.

It was a good vacation.
Hope you had a chance to unwind and enjoy.
