Celebrating the first day of Summer




We decided to do a "walk-about" to kick off the arrival of summer, so took a little drive down to Powell Gardens, where the butterfly festival was going on, and Chapungu sculptures were in place for summer visitors. Every view was extraordinary, and a kodak moment. We saw butterflies, caterpillars, birds of all different varieties, Canadian geese aplenty, a few black snakes pretending to be tree branches (one really liked the wisteria for some reason), and lots of other gardeners or gardener wannabes on the trails. The sculptures were beautiful, and situated in perfect views with flowers and blooming shrubs and trees framing them. If you are in MO, you need to visit this place, KC's own botanical garden
