Filoli


Today I want to share some photos I took at Filoli. Filoli is an old mansion in Woodside known for its gardens that I recently visited with Stephen's mom, Linda, and his sister, Janet, to check out this season's roses.
 We accidentally arrived just an hour before closing, but we were able to take a good look around and there were so so many beautiful flowers. I didn't take pictures inside the house because I saw a man get scolded for opening a wall panel with hidden shelves and I was scared to suffer the same embarrassment. Actually, I don't think he was embarrassed, at all. His response in the form of walking away as if he was lost was more along the lines of "I'm too old to be scolded, I don't care what you say, I'm just gonna walk this way while whistling." I digress. Here are my favorite pictures.(By the way, click on the pictures to seem them on my flickr, which shows them much clearer than here on blogger. Not sure why that is yet. If anyone knows why or what I can do, please help me out. Thanks.)


 Doesn't this last one look like Pops cereal? I thought it looked pretty tasty myself.
