Powell Gardens



This morning we took a look at The Weather Channel, and all indicators pointed to a pleasant morning.  The early morning temperature was around 70 degrees, and by noon it would climb to the mid 80s.  Considering that this is August in the Midwest, we were going to have a nice day for getting outdoors.  We decided to go to Powell Gardens, the botanical garden of the Kansas City area.  www.powellgardens.org/ 


After walking through the Butterfly Pavilion (the special exhibit this weekend), we walked all around the Gardens.






Look closely at the small dot at the top middle of the silo.  That's me with my arm raised, waving.  The silo is part of  the fruit and vegetable section of Powell Gardens.  We climbed a spiral staircase to the top, and enjoyed a really nice view.
