South Texas Botanical Gardens

Monday morning Peoria greetings to one and all!

I think that one of the things that most of us here in the Midwest miss in the winter time is the greenery that we get in spring and summer! In the winter here in Peoria, there’s not too much short of snow and a lot of brown! We don’t have any leaves on the trees and no grass in the yards, so it’s pretty bland! At this time of the year we’re really ready for some warmer temps and the signs of spring to get started. It seems like we’re having to wait a little longer for those warmer temperatures here in P-Town!!!

I was down in Corpus Christi, Texas last month and I was able to escape winter for a little while and also get some of that spring time color that we’ve all been missing! On one of my days in Corpus Christi, I was able to spend the day at the South Texas Botanical Gardens and it sure was fun!!! I was a little bit early for a lot of the plants and flowers that will be coming, but I was still able to see lots of greenery and color and it was wonderful!!!

Here are a few of my snaps from a day spent at STBG!!!

Thanks as always for checking out my work and I hope that you have a wonderful week to come!!!!
