Morning at Botanical Gardens

This morning Zack and I decided to get some fresh air before our afternoon rainstorm...9th day in a row that it has rained / hailed here in the afternoon.

Albert's parents have never been to the Botanical Garden's so off we went. They have a great display of Jurassic creatures mixed into the plant displays that Zack really enjoys.

Zack usually runs / hikes all over the place so I wasn't sure how happy he would be to get wheeled. He's been such a good sport so far.

We got Grandma Bernice a wheel chair so she could be like Zack. Seemed to go over well and helped her see more of the gardens. Zack has a favorite path that has hand-laid river rocks that make for a bumpy ride in the stroller...so of course we had to go "that way". It proved to be to difficult for Al to push wheel chair over so Bernice was good sport and hiked it for Z.

Zack showed Papa one of his favorite bridges...lots of Koi live in the pond below.

Grandma joined the guys to see what all the excitement was about and I was able to get picture of the whole gang.

Zack was really a trooper, and seemed to enjoy pointing out all the colors he could name and hunting for buggies. No "wollie pollies" this time but lots of "bees eee-ting lunch".

Nice picture of Al and Bernice at the garden just in front of the visitor center. You can see the grey clouds in the back ground and we made it out to the car just as we got our afternoon rain shower!
