On Saturday I was able to spend most of my day with my good friends Donna and James. Our hiking plans changed due to a storm on Friday that produced more rain than predicted. We end up at the Quarryhill Botanical Garden. The picture above was shot where I parked the PT Cruiser. This was the pre-show of what was an amazing day of strolling through the 25 acre garden in an old quarry. There are too many pictures to post so I have tried to pared it down to my favorites so as not to bore my readers.

I’m grateful for my friends James and Donna for a much-needed break to just get away and enjoy nature.
