A couple of these were taken a few days ago, at sunset, but the rest are pics taken today, out in that beautiful sunshine. Be expecting more pics later tonight or in the next couple of days from Frederik Meijer Gardens (from now on abbreviated at FMG) as I’m headed over in a bit. We…

Walk out back plus 020924
