Visiting Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden  

 

Dolores and I enjoy day trips to the Richmond, Virginia area. There are two places that we like to visit on a regular basis. The Virginia Museum of Fine Arts is a world class facility and a treasure for fine arts in Virginia.

Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden has a beautiful Conservatory and the most extensive gardens in the area. This summer, the live butterfly display is a feature that is always fun to photograph.

Thanks, Yolanda, for your comments. Actually, Lewis Ginter Botanical Gardens is a little over two hours from our home in Maryland.
