in an effort to keep up my exercise program I try to walk to the Park at least once on the weekend…

Sunday I got up and walked over fairly early…

the sun was shining down through the trees on the path… nice, considering the rain and dull skies we’ve been dealing with…

I decided to stop at The Park Cafe for breakfast… they have a delicious Black Bean Benedict where the beans are used as the muffin… nice treat… and I enjoyed eating by myself… yay for those big girl pants, lol…

the Boy with the Boot looked very nice in a circle of red and white, all ready for Canada Day…

the water lilies in the Arbour Pond have started to bloom, unlike the tropical ones in the main pond which are struggling with the chilly weather…

the peonies are doing beautifully by “our” bench… but I didn’t sit because this piece of equipment was buzzing loudly…

this bed of hostas is so beautiful… and the water drops just added to my delight in the view…

every time I walk through the Gardens I see something else growing or changing or for the first time…

so blessed for the good health and opportunity to enjoy this great space…
