October Roses
We went on a fun little outing this morning to the Zilker Botanical Garden here in Austin. They are currently hosting an exhibit called "DinoLand" - life size dinosaur replicas nestled in among the plants in the garden. Most certainly Carter's idea of a good time! I had a pleasant surprise at the garden - many of the roses still had blooms on them! Shows how much I know about Austin gardening, I didn't realize we still get roses this late into the fall!! So I went a little snap happy with the camera, and thought I'd share a few of them here, as well as a sorta neat photo of a butterfly. Enjoy! :-)
