Atlanta Botanical Garden



On May 15th I achieved one of my goals. Since visiting the Atlanta Botanical Garden with Reid's 1st grade class in 2003, I have been desiring to take Mom for a tour. It is a beautiful place, and knowing how she loves gardening, I knew that she would love a visit. So, during her visit in May, we finally took advantage of a beautiful day and drove into the city for a visit to the gardens.

It was the perfect day for this dream to be fulfilled. Blue skies prevailed with cumulus clouds and sunshine, which provided the perfect backdrop for this treat. While strolling the grounds, we also took a break to enjoy a deliciously prepared, made-to-order lunch of a Tuscan chicken sandwich and Mozzarella BLT, both on freshly made crunchy-soft sourdough bread! As Rachael Ray would say, "YUM-O!" And I had some delicious Tazo Awake black iced tea. (Can you tell I enjoyed it?!)

A lesson was learned this day and still being reflected on today... take the time to do the things which you desire. You will never know how fulfilling it can be until you accomplish your task!
