A Ramble Though the Washington Park Arboretum, Spring, 2024
This one goes through the Washington Park Arboretum on a lovely Spring day. In fact, it was two days before Earth Day, 2024 so there were volunteer crews out helping with some clean up. I got there a bit early before too many people overran the place but found it a lively enough walk anyway. I go over a bridge that I have been under a few hundred times and found a great set of groves that I never knew existed. It is wonderful to discover new places in a city that I have lived in for 43 years. I hope you enjoy this one, too!
