October 10th: A morning visit to Daniel Stowe Botanical Garden

On Saturday morning, October 10th, classmates congregated at Daniel Stowe Botanical Garden for a tour.   Jennie Williams had arranged for us to take the tour and then follow it up with a box lunch.   The weather was threatening rain when we arrived and was there was a little drizzle.   By the time we left the Pavilion and headed outside, the rain had stopped and we had a beautiful tour.
