National Public Gardens Day at the Idaho Botanical Garden

Friday, May 8 was National Public Gardens Day and, to celebrate, the Idaho Botanical Garden offered free admission! I’ve been before, but I couldn’t resist this opportunity. By the way, it’s a great place to have your photos taken, or have a wedding.
