The Beautiful Filoli

This was my 2nd visit to the beautiful Filoli (Fight-Love-Live). It is true that the gardens are different in each season. The last time we went, it was in the summer. Now it's spring and totally new flowers sprung up in the garden.
"Fight for a just cause; Love your fellow man; Live a good life." -- William Bowers Bourn II's credo from the acronym Filoli was derived.
Love coming here, The garden is amazing, the flowers are beautiful when they are in bloom. There are so many flowers I had never seen before or even knew existed!

3)
Two brothers were looking at some beautiful paintings.
"Look," said the elder brother. "How nice these paintings are!"
"Yes," said the younger, "but in all these paintings there is only the mother and the children. Where is the father?"
The elder brother thought for a moment and then explained, "Obviously he was painting the pictures."


Have a happy weekend :) :) :)
