We homeschooled for 11 years. Never once did I have a yearly pass anywhere. Except for our pool passes in the summer.
This October we decided to buy each other a Botanical Gardens pass for Christmas. It was $85 and it costs $20 each to get in once. We have gone twice and plan many more trips. It is always beautiful and peaceful there no matter the season.
It was unusually warm last week and we decided to head over. We stopped and got a Subway (with a gift card we were given!)
There is a beautiful fountain when you enter the gardens. Keilee thinks they should have a mermaid (her) sitting on a rock in the middle of it. The fact that no such rock exists doesn’t deter her.
It was a beautiful spring like day.
It was also so windy.
The Cherry Blossom trees were blooming everywhere. In the beginning of February!
The hammocks are one of our favorite spots.
Just chilling…
Kei getting pictures of the Koi.
All in all it was a perfect day.
Puxatony Phil says there is only 6 more weeks of winter. I do so hope he is right. But I would love ONE snow!

We had on decent snow and I am good. What a great place to have an annual pass to.
Blessings, Dawn
What lovely photos! Looks like a beautiful place. I’d want a year pass, too. When we lived in Arizona, we were five miles from these wonderful desert gardens and I loved making weekly visits there.
I hope Phil is right, too. Winter here has been cold and miserable. But I do hope you get your snow. 🙂 Too bad I can’t send some of ours your way.
