We went to the Botanical Gardens today.

They have these giant leaves on the wall in the new entrance pavilion. And there’s plenty of parking now, which is awesome.

Other than the Henry Moore sculptures, the exhibit right now is scarecrows. I liked this guy.

I don’t know why I can’t stop taking pictures of the green man, but I can’t.

Diversity on display among the kids in our party.

Sg and Arica.

Sg prepares to go down the slide.

Sg’s all like “Who wants to feel the sting? You? You want some?” I didn’t tell her, but this bee—without legs, a stinger or even wings—is plainly an evolutionary dead end.

Check out Sg’s pumpkin bowling form! Look at that follow-through. And it was her first time ever pumpkin bowling!
