Mother's Day Flowers

This afternoon we went to the botanic gardens. We wanted to see the lilac gardens while they are blooming. There were quite a few people when we arrived, but we were able to find a good parking spot and we headed in.

The gardens are having a special exhibit of sculptures now, so we took a look at some of them on the way. The lilacs weren’t completely in bloom yet, but there were plenty of flowers for us to smell. We spent a long time enjoying the flowers before we moved on to other parts of the garden.

We wandered to the back part of the gardens where we saw many water features surrounded by beautiful plants. As we walked though some storm clouds moving in. So we headed toward the exit. We were fortunate to get to the car before the rain started.
