Nope, its not Benjamin Franklin, it is the Swedish botanist Carl Linnaeus. Namesake of the Tulsa Garden Center’s Linnaeus Teaching Gardens. If you are in Tulsa sometime. Check it out. It is small but it is packed. If you know what I mean, and its free. Even the parking is free. Take your camera is my advice.
It has got lots of plants if that is what you are looking for. It has lots of shadows also.
This is my new satellite office. Shady in the Summer, sunny in the Fall. All I need is WiFi and a coffeepot and I’m ready to roll.
I love nice benches. Isn’t there a blog meme featuring benches? I can’t find it on Google. I just know that somebody will let me know.
Maybe this could be a satellite office also.
Yeah, well SuperPizzaBoy beat me to it. I snooze, I lose. That’s our family rule.

Hey its Sunday. Here’s my text for today.
Genesis 1: 11‑12
Then God said, “Let the land produce vegetation: seed‑bearing plants and trees on the land that bear fruit with seed in it, according to their various kinds.” And it was so. The land produced vegetation: plants bearing seed according to their kinds and trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good.
Go check out That’s Baloney for more pairings of photos and scripture.
It looks like a lovely spot to relax, I like the brick path under the arbors. Is Carl playing kick the pumpkin? Haha!

This is my kind of place, Yogi. I love the arbors. It looks like Linnaeus is playing soccer with that pumpkin! SPB has a choice seat – he looks pleased with himself.
What a beautiful place! I love it! And I would love to have my office right there, too! The shadows are just gorgeous! Caught some of the magic here yourself!! Hope you, Sweetie and SPB have a great day! Enjoy!

Is it me or does SPB look more grown up in this picture – a bit like owner of all he surveys!
What a beautiful place. I’m wondering where they get the funding to keep it so nice if they don’t charge admission.
SPB needs someplace to work, too. After all, you already have the cool office with the sunset views.
Seriously, the gardens are beautiful. I wouldn’t mind setting up an office there, if SPB wants to share.
I really like your pairing. I really, really like the smile on SPB’s face!
I wonder if Rusty Lang of the Tulsa World with her neighborhood traveling camera shots of gates, and doors and other themes has caught benches.
