Congress Park, Saratoga

This past fall I made a trip up to Saratoga Springs, NY, and the fall colors were gorgeous. Beautiful red geraniums surrounded this fountain just inside the main entrance (a previous post featured this fountain in the snow). Quite colorful and eye catching.

Chihuly in NC

Recently I went to a Chihuly exhibit that was showing locally, and wow, was it impressive! I first saw his work at an exhibit in the New York Botanical Gardens years ago and have been a fan ever since. While that show interspersed his works among the gardens and grounds, this show by contrast was indoors, so we were able to get really close to the pieces. The size and complexity of the pieces was stunning.

Morning fog

The other morning I had a fairly early start on the day, and the sunrise through the trees was quite pretty. The fog added a layer of beauty and interest and made it feel even more as though I were experiencing the outdoors "waking up" for a brand new day.
