I went to the Chicago Botanic Garden today. It was 10 degrees and everyone seemed to be surprised that I was going to an outdoor odyssey. Even when I drove up, the parking attendant wouldn't charge me the $25 because she said there was "nothing to see."
But there was a lot to see.
There were three greenhouses filled with exotic plants, ferns, cacti and everything imaginable. I spent an hour in the three greenhouses, marveled and took selfies in front of a tangled fern.
Even through the cold, I walked through the gardens and imagined that they were blooming. I could see the architecture within each garden and that gave me some visualization of what it will be like in the spring/summer.
It was a magical day and nicer because I was almost the only one there.
But I will go back in the spring and summer to see all in full bloom.
