Botanical Gardens

Today we went to the Daniel Stowe Botanical Gardens, so below you will find far too many pictures of flowers, fountains, and butterflies. It was very pretty and the weather was awesome -- sunny and around 80. A perfect day to walk around and enjoy the outdoors. Joel was feeling pretty good, miraculously. My camera's batteries chose to die about two minutes before a butterfly landed on Ben's finger, and it stayed there for like a minute so it would have made a great picture, with Ben standing stock still grinning like a maniac. Oh well - maybe next time.
