One photo a day challenge: Day 96.

I really wanted to get outside and enjoy the day today after spending the day staring at a computer screen. It’s my birthday and I figured I deserved to get out and enjoy some nature.

Not too many hours left in the day after work but we made the best of it.

I wanted to drive up to Ithaca and visit the Cornell Botanical Gardens. With all the warm weather lately I figured some flowers should be blooming by now.

I also wanted to relax at one of the nice scenic spots there and watch the sun set. It ended up getting pretty cloudy which blocked out most of the sunset.

It was still a beautiful, enjoyable, relaxing evening. Just what I was hoping for.
