Deb and I had the opportunity to visit the University of Minnesota Arboretum in the western suburbs two weekends ago. In addition to many trees, grouped according type, there were also many different flower gardens, a prarie, and an interactive center (which included the obligatory gift shop [where you could be a tree seed for only a quarter]).
The green stuff on the lake is algae which bloom when it gets hot here on all of the lakes
This tree has a wispy type of bloom, unlike most trees. Almost like cotton candy.
More unusual fauna.
This here is Don and Anna, two friend from the seminary. They are the ones who suggested to visit the arboretum (which was a great way to enjoy a Sunday afternoon). Don and Anna are also from the Puget Sound area. We have recently begun to get to know them better (Don and I took part in the rural cross-cultural class last January). Don (and Anna) will be heading back to western Minnesota to do his internship there.
