Matthaei Conservatory, Once Again


This year we were once again delighted to be able to go down and visit the Matthaei Conservatory around my birthday.  This time we took Grace and Tim along as well as Charity who had not been able to make the trip last year.  Following are pictures (LOTS of pictures) from the conservatory.

We had an enjoyable visit, and now Josiah is convinced that we need to have our very own Conservatory.  Some day... some day.
