September 11, 2019, at the Sarah Roosevelt garden on the estate in Hyde Park, New York where President Franklin Roosevelt grew up and spent part of his adult life.
Walking through the garden, I saw monarchs on the zinnias, perhaps getting ready to migrate to Mexico. It's another sign that fall is coming soon.
And then there was this butterfly whose name I forget (and I know someone will remind me) nearby.
While we as a country grieved, nature went on doing what it does every day. The cares of a butterfly are not our cares.
And they sure are beautiful to watch.
Welcome! I hope I bring a spot of calm and happiness into these uncertain times. I blog about flowers, gardening, my photography adventures, the importance of chocolate in a well lived life, or anything else on my mind.
