Dallas Arboretum

Yesterday, the folks visited the Dallas Arboretum.  The normal admission price is $15 a person, but in February the price is only $5.  You know that Mom jumped on that.  Parking is $15, but if you pay for it online, it is $8.  However, paying for parking online does not guarantee you a space as you can use it any day and not just on the day that you pay for it.  Luckily, it was not a problem and they found a parking space.  Mom would have been upset if it hadn't worked out. You know what is funny?  The gate was up when they left so they never even had to show their parking ticket.

Mom said it is a really pretty place and she took lots of photos.  Dad said there were a lot of fat squirrels there.  I wish I could have gone, but dogs are not allowed.  People are allowed to picnic on the grassy areas.  There were a lot of people dressed up taking photos and one was a bride.























 










Mom said it would be fun to visit at different times of year because it would look different with each season.
