Winter Escape to the Conservatory

On a cold, cloudy January Saturday, wise Ted said to his cooped up wife: "Let's go to the Garfield Park Conservatory!" This gem, just a few miles south of downtown Indianapolis, has been a favorite escape during winters past. It is tropical, bright, full of flowers, water and fish and only costs a dollar to enter- what a perfect hour or so "vacation." Now that Caroline is six months old, she likes to experience everything (by grabbing and putting it in her month). She is also really into "pets" (after the squealing, she tries to grab and....), hence how perfect to offer a new experience like a greenhouse.  How fun it was to escape as a family.  Enjoy some photos of our adventure below.
