Finally: New Bridges at the Botanical Garden
New handrails on a small bridge at the Matthaei Botanical Gardens. |
For three years, this bridge has been closed, cutting off easy access to the prettiest trails in the gardens. At last, the funding was secured, the bridge was built, and it’s open for us to enjoy. |

We went for a walk along an older but still sturdy wooden bridge at our local metropark this morning. Very refreshing and still green. I love your pictures!
ReplyDeleteI love the bridge.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the new bridge and those who funded it.
ReplyDeleteNice murals. They are all so very different. Apparently a collaboration of several artists.
Nothing like walking in a beautiful garden to refresh your soul. Looks very peaceful there. I love the wall art! Recently we had an artist paint some walls in the little town next to ours. Love seeing art out in the open! Have a great week!

il semblerait que l'automne fasse doucement son apparition par chez vous. j'aime beaucoup cette série de photos
ReplyDeleteBeautiful new bridge -- and I enjoyed the pictures you found along the way. All the new public art in Ann Arbor is staggering--and exciting to see. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteBlessings on your new bridge that looks sturdy and beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThree years?! And I thought in Germany they are slow... At least it´s pretty.
ReplyDeleteLOL, I feel just like that. A little "munched down" in my head. Sadly no rain.
Wonderful murals.
Love the new bridge, iris and the murals. Nice looking trail.
ReplyDeleteTake care, have a wonderful week!
So nice that a bridge was built for all to enjoy the botanical gardens.
ReplyDeleteI just visited Perth's botanical gardens (Kings Park) today to see the Spring flowers. Beautiful photo of the white iris.
Love the ballerina's mural, so sweet.
Thanks for participating in Monday Murals Mae.
Hooray for the bridge. It looks sturdy. And the gardens look lush. Enjoy.
ReplyDeleteI love the dancing ladies on the mural. I adore botanical gardens Yours is beautiful Looking at the flowers it seems it is spring at your place as well?
ReplyDeleteGood news that the bridge has been replaced. I guess there is so much demand for funds these days that projects get delayed or not done at all. Now you’ll be able to enjoy all of the gardens.
ReplyDeleteA fall iris -- that's something you don't see often. I really am glad they replaced the bridge. It looks terrific.
ReplyDeleteWhat a difference.a bridge makes. Glad you have access again. The white iris is stunning.
