Ingrid's Minnesota Photos

Except for the first picture, the first batch are from our late August trip up to the Twin Cities. We enjoyed visiting cousins and exploring some of the sites. Most of the photos are from the beautiful Minnesota Landscape Arboretum.

The second batch, beginning with the rocks, are from a trip over Labor Day weekend to Omaha's Lauritzen Gardens--lots of fun flowers, and even some veggies.

Small demo greenhouse for a home garden. Wish I could fit this in my backyard

Rain barrel. Interesting design. It's a Bushman 305, meaning it holds 305 gallons.

Another neat rain barrel--can't find them on-line, though.
