The Eve of Summer

There's nothing like a peaceful walk in a beautiful garden. We ventured out a few evenings ago, a last minute sort of thing. There was so much beauty to breathe in, so much to see, so little time before the summer sun melted into the edge of the sky.

Maggie fished a floating dragonfly out of the fountain...to our surprise, it was still alive. Brian and the kids helped to dry its wings in hopes that it would fly again, but the drying of wings takes awhile and so we found a safe place for the dragonfly to rest and we'll check on it next time we venture out into the garden.
