Cox Arboretum, just a few miles from my home, is one of my “go to places.”

There’s just always something comforting to the body, and calming to the fatigued spirit.  Today was one of those days I needed Cox Arboretum.My at home vacation has been far from relaxing, and even in my optimistic nature, I’ve found no Little pleasure this past week.

My two hour planned escape to Cox Arboretum was cut short by about 90 minutes due to a very unwelcome rain shower.

The humidity is on the rise, and the gray clouds maintain the weather’s uncertainty.

How I would have enjoyed a much needed respite this afternoon.
