Herb Day, 2015

Last Saturday (May 2) was Herb Day at our local extension office.  They put on the show every year, and there are usually lots of new plants and herbs to appreciate.  This was the first time I had even been out of the house in nearly two weeks, so I was excited to attend, albeit a bit shaky.

There were lots of booths around the perimeter of the building,

and my original intent was to go around the perimeter and see the plants outside first.  However, the restroom called my name, so I decided to check out the plants inside first.

It was actually a beautiful day, and I couldn't understand why so many people were dressed for winter.

There was nothing I hadn't seen in years past, including the guy selling the rain barrels.

So it was off to see what was outside.  Just as I was getting ready to take a photo of a fish, a woman stepped in and rotated it. 
I had to wait till she left to get a photo of it.  Gotta' love crowds.

I never fail to find a cat to show Bleubeard, though.  It makes him feel like he was there.

More of the same old same old, and prices were so high this year, I nearly balked.  Small square pots were $5.00, round were $8.00.  Two years ago I paid $2.50 for round pots (or 5 for $10.00) and $1.00 for small ones.  And it was EVERY place I stopped.   Needless to say, Herb Day was a bust for me this year.  If you want to see my photos (from my old lousy camera) from Herb Day 2012, please go here.  For Herb Day 2013, please go here. 

Thanks for joining me for Herb Day 2015.  I hope you enjoyed the look around.
