We're back from a great long weekend in "the ham." With iced latte in hand we spent some time strolling through the Birmingham Botanical Gardens. Admission is totally free. Such beauty at no cost is such a treat. It's stuff like this that really works to make a city great. (Hint hint Nashville - it's your turn!) What kind of free wonders does your city hold?

    Thanks for stopping by! I absolutely LOVE your blog (and that you love running)!! :]

    I love the flowers in the last picture. I saw them last weekend at the farmer's market, but the name escapes me! Do you know what they are called?

    This is sooooo awesome! I go by the Botannical Gardens every once in a while, since I am in Birmingham. That is great that you enjoyed the beauty there. Next time you guys come down, you should definitely stop by Yogurt Mountain on the way there. It is delish! Beautiful pictures! :)

    here in detroit we have a whole collection of blocks dedicated to art. the streets and houses are completely covered with designs, sculpture, murals, etc. to walk through the neighborhood is free & so much fun!!
