Sunday with Tobi: an afternoon in the gardens
Last weekend Sunday we spent the afternoon (with a picnic) at Kirstenbosch Gardens. It turned out to be quite warm and the flowers were amazing!! That's Jim and Tobi lying on the blanket.

It looks like it was a beautiful day to go to the park. We are planning on going to Starved Rock tomorrow to admire the trees, but we'll see. Our hot water heater just went out. =(
