So, yesterday was yet another Wet Weather Wednesday for me, and unfortunately for me I had to leave the house for a few hours as they did the quarterly pest spraying.  After considering a few of my options I decided to try out the Botanical Gardens over at the UNC Charlotte campus. 

I have to say it was a pleasant surprise.  It was a lot smaller than what I’m used to, but it was still presented very nicely and well worth the trip.  And to be perfectly fair and clear, the Botanical Gardens I usually/used to go to are the ones in Lackawanna, NY near Buffalo, which are absolutely huge.  Also, I only saw the indoor segment of the gardens and wasn’t able to wander the outdoor section, so I honestly have no idea how big the full gardens are.  That will be a project for another day I’m afraid.

I’m seriously at the point though that I wish it would just stop raining on Wednesdays.

I did get some nice shots of some of the flowers and plants while I was there, which I have added to the flowers gallery here. 

I’m afraid it’s another short one this week as I’m in prep mode for Valentine’s Day once my sweetheart gets home.  Speaking of sweethearts, it’s still not too late to book a session for photos for that special someone.  It may be too late for Valentine’s Day itself, but Easter, and then Mother’s Day are both right around the corner.
