Garden in the Woods

My mom had an awesome idea to go to a wildlife sanctuary or somewhere to explore nature. I found a place called the Garden in the Woods in Framingham, Massachusetts. It is a nice path through the woods where you get to see lots of wildflowers, trees, and plants, some native to Massachusetts, and some not. It was so nice to walk around outside and see so many beautiful things! I have an absession with taking pitcures of flowers and plants, so I have plenty of pictures to share with you!


Welcome to The Garden in the Woods!



Here I am on a pretty bench!

I agree.

I learned something today. The Sassafrass tree is the only tree that has three distinctively shaped leaves. Most trees have uniform leaves, but this one does not!

Pretty white flowers!

Pretty leaf!

Ferns are beautiful, aren't they? There were so many different kinds, too. There was even a kind called Lady's tresses. I just love this photo.

Gorgeous. Like large snapdragons. Snapdragons on steroids!

Another pretty flower.

And another.

Ths fower doesn't even look like a flower! It looks like pink frosting.

I cannot wait to use these phtotos as inspiration for some paintings and drawings. So excited!!

Now I must get back to uploading dozens of cd's onto my computer, doing laundry, and watching lots of Oprah. Have a good night!
