My minds been too full....

I've had too many distractions to post here of late. I don't have much to say today but I did want to share some pictures from my morning trip to Maymont Park. The weather was beautiful with a nice breeze and lots of shade along the way to cool us down when we needed it. I hope you enjoy these pictures as much as I enjoyed seeing the sights today........
The Italian gardens are still teaming with color and butterflies. This is the location of many local weddings in our area. It is so easy to see why.



The butterflies and the dragonflies danced from place to place. I was mesmerized by them. I only wish they would have sat still long enough that I may have snapped pictures of all the varieties that I had seen.

I was surprised to see the roses flourishing at this late summer date. The final weekend of summer but you certainly can't tell it by the beautiful flowers in bloom here.



The ponds were full of muck yet the flowers on the lily pads didn't seem to mind it much.









The waterfall looked lovely today and this last pond looked surprisingly pristine. I could have taken a nap at that spot.


Can you find the rainbow from one of the pictures of the falls?
