You don’t know what you don’t know. Last year I missed the camellia season. Thankfully, due to my membership with the botanical garden I received a newsletter explaining all the upcoming events surrounding camellias. To be honest, I stole the title for this post from the garden’s newsletter. I’ll let the experts explain… Winter in Bloom.

I have been busy adding each opportunity to my calendar. This year I want to explore it all. Last year I happened upon the tail end of the camellia season. This image is from an April visit…

I spent the last three days of work in leadership training at the National Infantry Museum at Fort Benning. It was an interesting event. I’m not sure everything I learned can be applied to my style (do I have a style?), but I did come away with some very good stuff. Besides getting to know nine of my coworkers better I might have learned one or two things about myself (maybe… 😉 ).

I’m not sure if that information is relevant but I did want to share. This morning I went to the Columbus Botanical Garden with the hope of getting a few floral macros and let’s be honest, to get me off the couch and actually walk around. It was worth it!
