A Little Tropical Weather

When the highs are in the single digits, you just try to stay warm. That usually means wearing long johns, drinking a cup of tea, and wrapping up in a blanket. But today, we thought we would do better than that. We headed over to the Garfield Park Conservatory where the weather is always tropical.

Sylvia enjoys a little warmth in the Palm House.

Sylvia tends to be quite literal. The sign says 'Touch Me!' Darcie and Chris assumed it referred to the plant beside the sign.

Sylvia is impressed by the Fern Room.

Hope everyone else is staying warm!
