On Labor Day, a mysterious benefactor made a donation that allowed Lauritzen Gardens to be open to the public. So, along with most of Omaha, we took my Great-Aunt Donna on an adventure through the 100 acres of botanical gardens. It is the time of year to go, right when summers rays begin to fade and the flowers are at their brightest. We saw everything from tropical hibiscus to cactus. The trees were lush and green and sky the brightest of blues. It was a wonderful way to start our day!
Running water and gourds hanging without falter...
...we always make time to check out the whimsy of tiny trains clacking down stick tracks....
...and getting lost in fields of sunflowers with the sun beating down on our backs.
Buzzy bee's and sunflower trees, make summer's days just right for me!
