It sounds like fun. I like botanical gardens. You get to see plants you 
might not otherwise and they are usually (and conveniently) labeled. :)

I'm going camping on Tuesday. It will be a car camp trip with a couple of 
the guys I worked with before I retired. One is a former boss, the other a 
coworker. Neither is into backpacking so we're going to a campground at 
Cranberry Lake. We'll do a couple of day hikes and I'm taking my canoe. I 
have to get some trail photos in that area for the Northern Region Guide 
that is in the process of being updated. The hikes will be slow strolls as 
that is the style of one of the guys and my ex-boss and I will hike at his 
pace. After all he volunteered to bring all the food and do all the 
cooking. :) I'll try to get some good photos to share with the list.
