Ruff Enough?

Alongside sticking my nose deep into the flowers, I thoroughly enjoy the vibe at Ruff Park, the magnolia arboretum. There are evergreens and deciduous trees mixed in among the magnolias. A nice concrete walking path runs the circumference of the park. Scattered about the park beneath the branches are picnic tables where guests share an afternoon lunch.

Magnolias come in many sizes. The bud on this tall, tall tree is larger than an adult's hand!

Much of the park has a wood rail fence, separating the park from the nearby neighborhood.

There are views of mountains and pastures just beyond the magnolia blooms.

This tree has a particularly wide reach, completely in bloom.

Yet still, it all comes back to the blossoms

and all the hidden details.
