My mom came into town the other day, and I toook her to the Brooklyn Botanic Gardens. The day was a good one for it.

When I was a baby, according to my grandmother, I was afraid to be on the grass. Now it's become a meaningful activity.

There was a lot of air traffic overhead, and it made it the otherwise peaceful setting feel somewhat less so.

A lot of hovering helicopters.

I like the indoor areas the best.

Especially the succulents.

We saw this huge turtle, who was probably really old, what with having all that moss growing on his shell.

Ah, transcendence.
