Gabe and I joined my good friends Charles and Tammy with their 2 and a half year old daughter Lizzy over the 4th of July weekend to visit the Botanical Gardens north of the city. It’s absolutely beautiful there and even after 2.5 hours, I don’t think we covered half of the park. They have this train exhibit where miniature trains travel through model cities. The cities are modeled off of famous places around the US. I honestly think the trains were my favorite part of the whole trip
Here are a couple photos from the trip (view full album)
