Greetings from Meadowlark Gardens

Sunday was warmer and sunnier than Saturday. We did a bunch of chores in the morning, had soup and sandwiches for lunch, and went to Meadowlark Gardens, which it turns out is free in February though we didn't know that until we got there. The glass reception hall was being set up for a wedding and not much was blooming yet in the formal gardens, but there were crocuses, snowdrops, aconite, Lenten roses, some annuals, and geese, ducks, koi, and songbirds, plus a cranky box turtle in the visitor center.

My eye is still driving me crazy so looking at the computer is a pain. We watched the season finale of Around the World in 80 Days, not its best-written episode but it set up further adventures, then we watched this week's Billions, which was fine (I love women one-upping Chuck), and then we finished watching A Castle for Christmas, which was just as silly as we expected and had some lovely Scottish scenery, plus Cary Elwes as a cranky Duke and Brooke Shields as a romance novel writer!
