Perfect on a cold, dull, snow flurry February Monday. Our botanical garden is hosting it's second glass exhibit in the Mediterranean greenhouse. I go for the plants as much as the glass and .. lunch out with my sister and niece.
Certainly sounds like a fun day! The glass is pretty...but it can't compare to the real flowers! If you like glass works, you might check out the Museum of Glass in Tacoma, Wa. (south of Seattle) when you're in the area this summer. Lots of Dale Chihuly glass is on display everywhere. He has new work shops in Ballard and one in Tacoma, but they usually aren't open to the public.
The glass vase at the top was beautiful. Are the trees budding over there yet? I am sorry to be missing the Canadian spring. The blossoms brought such a sense of hope after the dark, barren winter months.

Oh how beautiful - so nice to see, and no doubt nice to be out and enjoying with people you live.

Thanks K. I'll make note of any and all places you recommend. *smile*
