That syrup kettle is pretty interesting. I don't think I've ever seen one.

I'd love to see that syrup kettle doing its thing -- but I'm guessing it's just for show to lend authenticity.
Love the wildflowers, and it's nice to know those workers have pride in keeping the park so clean and attractive.

Such a lovely area. I would love to sit on that bench and watch the butterflies.
Hope you get rain today.
We are going to be about 93F. Summer has begun around here.

Sandra, this area looks like a great one for walks and I wondered if it is nearbuy and, if so, do you and beau go there often? The flowers certainly seem to be thriving despite the absence of a lot of rain.
