Yesterday Scott, Alyssa and I took a ride to Planting Fields Arboretum. It was such a beautiful day to be outside with nature! But first, we went into the Carmelia House. This is the wrong time of the year to see them flowering but I love the old structure.

The side of the house
This is a sun dial. In all of the years I've been going there (since the 70's!), I never noticed it. It took Scott to call my attention to it! It is a 1/2 day sun dial that has Roman #'s along the "u" shape to tell you what time it is!

CROCUS in MID OCTOBER!!!!!

The cottage made for the Coe's children
Then LOTS and LOTS of pics of flowers.
This is made of various cedar trees.
That's it! We had a very enjoyable day!
