Sometimes, I just need an afternoon for me. After a stressful (and unsuccessful) morning apartment hunting a couple Saturdays ago, I decided to just drive up to Longwood Gardens. Mama Dent and my mom bought me the yearlong garden pass so I'm free to visit whenever I like. I am loving it and I plan on getting it every year I live in Delaware (and probably even after that since it's worth the trek to Kennett Square, Pa.).
During my visit, and despite the humidity, I decided to explore new areas. When I visited the last couple of times, it was with some Ya-Yas. It was sad to go alone this time, but at the same token, it was good to see some spots I hadn't before so I know where to explore further when I have visitors again. Here are some of my favorite finds from the beginning of summertime at Longwood...

To quote Elizabeth, and Coldplay, "And it was all yellow." |

The texture of the treetops against the sky reminded me of a Bob Ross painting. "Oh, that's good, that's nice, that's good, that's nice." |

Don't sting me as I try to get this shot! |

So excited to finally see the lilies |

LOVE the p&p and shout out to me and chris.
Are you moving??
Apartment hunting? Are you moving??
As always, lovely photos :)
Sadly, yes. They were increasing my rent too much so I decided to get a one-floor, one-bedroom apartment in the same complex. Basically, I'm just across the parking lot!
