Day 185 – I took a walk through Anderson’s Japanese Garden this morning with my mother-in-law. It was very relaxing. We just put our phones on silent and walked through the garden admiring all the beauty.

Day 150 – I love these daisies with the purple and yellow centers. They are all in full bloom at the Lincoln Park Conservatory. It’s a wonderful place to visit (and it’s free). There are rooms for ferns, orchids, garden plants and palms.
