Occasionally during my day, I stop my car to enjoy a site and shoot a photo. Today was a particularly nice day in the Washington Park area.  The gardens in are full bloom and the temptation was irresistable, I parked, grabbed my camera and toured the garden.

As I was posturing for the best "shots" I noticed a gentleman watching me.  He was working in the garden.  I asked him, "Is this Your Garden?"  He grinned and said "yes!"  

We chatted about the remarkable collection of plants and how well he had matched up the dark and light colors.  He was truly an artist and I told him so.  We introduced and shook hands. 

The pride in his eyes was so strong, I could tell he loved his work.  At that point I just had to have his picture.  He was so thrilled, but kidded me about being on America's Top 10 or something.  I knew that could never be true, he was just a tad bit bashful of having his photo taken.  He obliged  me.  I told him I would blog about his magnificent garden tonight. 

I don't think he knows what a blog is, but he was cool with what ever I said.  I after all I was a guest in his garden.

Active Rain, please allow me to introduce Breck of the Denver Parks Department.  He is the guy who takes care of our many city parks.

He makes my day and millions of other's days too!
