August 2

.


On the 2nd I walked downtown to have lunch with some of my work buddies.  It was warm, but not awful.



I was a little early for lunch, so I wandered around taking a few pics.....

They have (FINALLY!) finished filling in the Annarborsbad Cavern.  I believe it is mostly full of parking structure.  You couldn't pay me to park six stories underground......

At present, there is a little bit of parking on top, where there used to be a rather large parking lot.  Tower Plaza, at left, and the red bricks at right are the library.  That brick building in the middle is a brand-new student apartment building.

I didn't see the unicyclist (just above things-to-which-one-locks-bycycles) until I got this up on "the big screen."



Flags.



In the pavement, near the library.



We had a good lunch at Jerusalem Garden.  We shouldn't let it be so long between lunches!!!



Walking home.

Hibiscus.



Love the shadow.



Oooh!  Finally got a nice closeup of the naughty bits.







Now I'm walking with Willard.

Oak-leaf hydrangea.



This is a large, but excellent shrub.  Its owner told me, last fall, that it is interesting in every season, and she loves it.

It must be 10-12' tall.....



Japanese anemone.





Still Japanese anemone.  Tall, for a herbaceous plant.  Over 5'.



I am starting to think it is just Wrong that there are still daylilies, but I still love them.
