I'm in, I'm out, I'm here, and I'm there...

This won't be a long post.  I'm tired and inspired from my Washington DC trip.  Once in a while the little guy gets to go to the big town and give input.  Cool beans.  After my meetings, I walked my feet off.  These are a few of the photos from the Botanical Garden next to the Capitol.  They aren't the best, as I didn't take the good camera.   
The entrance to the Botanical Gardens.
This was right inside the door.
This is looking up at the roof.
These succulent pots were all over.  I was very impressed with them.
There is a table and chairs in the corner.  It was a peaceful spot.
This is inspiring an addition to the old greenhouse.
As you can see the gardens are right next to the Capitol.
I will share more later.  Sorry the sun is so harsh.  I sure enjoyed the tour.  I always see other posts that take the tour of some beautiful garden.  I never thought it would be me taking someone on a tour.  Hope you enjoyed, I know I did.

I am afraid I am still not fully back to blogging.  I have a bow elk tag, so I am up at 5:00am and  will be sitting in the woods enjoying nature and hoping a good elk steak walks by.  As those of you that know me are aware, I'm not a patient woman so this will be an interesting hunt.  Hope you enjoy the photos.  I will try to keep up with everyone's posts, but you may not hear from me as often.

  8. Oh what a beautiful place!! Good luck with the elk hunting! You go girl...you must be good with a bow! I'm impressed. I've never had elk before...I would probably like it! One of these days, I think I would like to learn how to hunt for pheasant.
