Sunset at the Conservatory

It’s been a Volunteer Park Conservatory kind of week. Still waiting for the Corpse Lily (“Dougsley”) to bloom and emit its stench. In the meantime, here’s a view of the sunset through the Bromeliad house.

Causland Memorial Park

While visiting Anacortes, WA last weekend, we saw the most amazing natural rock mosaic structures in Causland Memorial Park. This appears to be a performance space.
