We are fortunate to live nearby a relaxing green outdoor museum of trees, Morton Arboretum. I am fortunate to have a wife that enjoys it enough to keep renewing our membership. It has always had beautiful drives and trails that stretch around hills and ponds. In recent years they have added a maze and children's interactive section. I've posted about some of our visits. Last summer we enjoy a series of evening outdoor concerts.

I loved your pictures! The tree art is especially cool. The pink reflecting from the tree was gorgeous. Thanks for sharing.
I like the pink water.
The Arboretum is gorgeous. The art tree is fascinating.
Wow - what a spectacular place. I am in love with the painted tree, but the Japanese feel of the tree on the water just sings too.
Yes it looks painted from a distance but it is actually a crocheted tree. Temporary art. thanks
Loving the purple polka-dot tree trunk!
Hey - - - are those REDBUDS in the background???? We had those in Indiana and I never realized how much I liked them until we moved here and don't have any.
Of course, I STILL love it here - - - but have been missing the redbuds this spring.
Lucky you to have such beautiful well kept grounds just nearby, even Superman loves the place! That pink canopy tree.. stands out pretty.
