Jessie and I have arranged our summer schedules to allow for "get togethers" with the kids on Tuesdays and Thursdays. So, last Thursday we arranged to meet at the Los Angeles County Arboretum and Botanic Garden which is just about a 4o minute drive for both of us. We looked at lots of flowers and wildlife, especially some very friendly peacocks. Madeline looked at each one's leg tag, and the highest number she saw was 73. I have no idea how many peacocks are wandering around that place. We also saw geese, fish, turtles, and squirrels. Madeline said, "This place is just like the zoo; there are animals everywhere!" However, I think the highlight of the day was when this 75 year old-ish little lady asked Jessie if Emmet was wearing a Grateful Dead shirt. Too cute! We were there about two and a half hours and still didn't get to see everything.
