this morning the sky was stunning… it started with white clouds, then dark clouds, and finally sunshine, all within what felt like minutes… 

then it was off to the Park for breakfast and a walk through the Gardens with my friend…

as I walked there, the sky continued to provide a variety of views…

once inside the Park, came across a huge tree down on the pathway…

great meal and stroll as we caught up on one another’s lives over the last few weeks…

the Gardens were at their absolute best with blooms bursting out everywhere we looked…

clearly the gardeners have been working nonstop…

and there were others hard at work in amongst the flowers…

this morning the Boy and his Boot were dry, but there were some new plants in the pond and they were lovely…

took a turn around the Riley Family Duck Pond and got a few shots of some mallard babies… not so little anymore…

nice view of the Pavilion and Lyric stage…

sky continued to change on my walk home… bit of darkness off in the distance as I crossed the bridge… and the wind started to pick up…

by the time I reached the corner of my street the temperature had probably dropped five degrees…

and it was very dark… but it all blew over and was sunny for the remainder of the day…

was sure to have my supper organized and eaten before six, when the Rio 2016 Olympic Games Opening Ceremonies started…

firmly ensconced in front of the tv… happily won’t have to get up in the middle of the night to watch as the time zone is so close to ours…

going to be busy for the next seventeen days, lol…
