Went to the Morton Arboretum about a few weeks ago. Great little place. Lots of trails ranging from .5mile to 1.5miles. Also have gardens and such for families and picnics spots. Took my Spyderco Salt with me (sorry no pics this time).


Art in the middle of a pond…also know as place for turtles when they want sun (you can see 2 on the logs)

The Art is a tree that fell down through winter then the Artist cut into segments about 3in wide. Then laid them out in this pond to make you look at a tree different.

Great pics Nate. I gotta get myself and my family out there. Heck, I live minutes away from there and don't take advantage of what's in my backyard. Thanks for the motivation... just going to wait until it's not a gazillion degrees and 100% humidity out there.
