Sunday in the park with Rowan...

...although it was actually Thursday. The fam took a trip to the Chicago Botanical Gardens to see if we could find a real rowan tree, and then photograph Rowan in front of it. Although mountain ashes were available, they were of the alnifolia variety, not the aucuparia associated with British folklore. (Strangely, Chicago has a number of rowan trees around the city, though they all seem to be hiding.) All was not lost, though. We caught some beatiful pictures of Mom with Rowan, taken by Joseph, and some lovely pictures of flowers, taken by yours truly.
