I TOOK A WALK TODAY...

It was hard to resist goint outside today...overcast skies and a cool breeze were the perfect combination for a stroll around the Refresher Course.  Sometimes, I miss being able to share an in-the-moment discovery, so I invite you to share these photos of plants with me from today's walk.
