1982. our gang

hangin’ out

away from the crowd of grownups 

the little rascals

 

Yesterday’s opening of an art exhibit at Aubrey Arboretum was well attended. It was crowded and loud. Food was plentiful. Wines and children’s punch drinks also plentiful. The exhibition of paintings by Pragya Gupta was impressive and inspiring. My favorite takeaway was this photo of a group of children hanging out together. Made me think of the old black and white TV series, Our Gang.

Looking at today’s weather, it was 37° feeling like 29°. Here are hellebore flowers blooming on this cold, windy morning during the Lenten season just before Easter. Though not in the rose family, hellebores are known as Lenten Roses and are among the few flowers vital enough to grow and bloom in the snows and ice of late winter and early spring. They appear to be dainty and delicate, and yet.
