Hi and welcome to the Daily View! All week I have been sharing photos from Longwood Gardens. Particularly flowers. But how about some scenery? Okay, here you go.
This is a path in the Meadow Garden. One of many. I find that this time of year is perfect for walking the meadows because the bugs are not bad and the moderate temperatures make it much more comfortable than during the peak of Summer. Hopefully we'll make it there a few more times before Winter sets in. Thanks for stopping by! Until next time...
Hi and welcome to the Daily View! Wow did this weekend go fast or what? But overall it was a good weekend around here so I am thankful for that. Tonight I was hoping to share a photo of the "Blood Moon" with you but the cloudy skies here say different. And not only are we having a blood moon but also a total lunar eclipse. But hey, I'll get another chance in 2033. Only 18 short years away and I'll be a very youthful 63 years old. For now however I'll have to settle for sharing this moonshot with you.
This is from last night. I wasn't able to get a clear shot but I think the clouds give it a nice ambiance.
Before I go I also have a short video I'd like to show you. This is the praying mantis from yesterday's post.
Hi and welcome to a very late Daily View! Well it's not late quite yet but it is sure getting close so I better get right to it. Kim and I took a drive down to Longwood Gardens today and wow was it a great day to walk the gardens. The weather was perfect and the crowds were small. Just the way I like it! So anyhow we made our way to the Meadow Garden and as we were walking along I looked down and saw this guy.
Camouflage in nature is meant to protect but in this case it almost
killed this particular praying mantis. It's a really good thing I was
watching where I was walking because I just happened to see him and
just missed stepping on him. I am happy to say that he made it safely
into the brush. Thanks for stopping by!
Today I would like to wrap up our trip to Longwood Gardens on Saturday. Though I may share a few more after today. You never know. I usually concentrate on flowers when at Longwood. I mean it is what they are famous for. But their grounds are just as beautiful. It is so peaceful and I could walk there every day. Even when there are crowds there always seems to be a quiet spot. Anyhow I have three photos to share with you today. Please have a look and enjoy. This first shot is the lake at the beginning of the Meadow Garden. A few days ago I showed you the other side.
Here we have a closer look at the lake. I guess it is actually a look into the lake. Check out the fish.
And this last photo shows the trail leading into the Meadow Garden.
Thanks for stopping by. I am so glad that you did. I hope you enjoyed your stay and come back again real soon. There is a lot I would like to share with you.
