One of my favorite experiences was the Humboldt Botanical Gardens. I love going to Botanical Gardens everywhere and this one was one of the best I have EVER been to. Layering of color and flowers and variety and texture .... every bench you sat at was positioned to have a meditative place to stare in awe at the vast beauty of the landscape. More than anything else, these trips are a way for us to recalibrate together away from the day-to-day routine of our lives. We have to remind ourselves that the world is vast and the possibilities are endless. And as parents, we are "home" for our kids always regardless of our physical location. So in terms of pulling us all towards center again and regrouping after a long busy school year, being in awe of the big world, and spending time in nature; this trip was a resounding success.
