Not only was the temperature a plus 80 degree day last Wednesday, it was a wonderful day to meander through the
Overland Park Arboretum and Botanical Gardens. A 300-acre garden with several small themed gardens and an emphasis on natural preservation along with hiking trails.
Never having been a fan of water gardens, this could change my thinking.
Interesting sculpture, "
Vitruvian Woman",made of earth and concrete.
It was difficult not to "pocket" some of these poppy seeds.
Having had horses as a child, this sculpture was a favorite. Not sure which made me smile more, the moon and horseshoes or the fact it was called "Bill".
No particular reason to look up while hiking the trails...other than a different angle of beauty.
Beautiful weather, lovely gardens, "hiking" friend and interesting sculptures...truly a Plus Day don't you think?
