My hubby asked me what I wanted for an anniversary gift... I thought about it and decided I would like to get a season ticket to Gilroy Gardens Family Theme Park.  So he bought it for me....  I went there for the first time last year and fell in love with it!  The flowers and waterfalls are beautiful.  I saw the flowers in mid summer and Fall, but I didn't get to see the spring flower gardens they have there.  I am going tomorrow and get some new photos of Gilroy Gardens in the Spring!  I may post a photo essay on what I see tomorrow at the park.  I have published several photos of the water falls and flower gardens already.  My Monarch icon photo was taken in Monarch Gardens flower conservatory in Gilroy Gardens.  That is also where all the tropical plants, flowers and trees are located.  It's very beautiful at Gilroy Gardens and anyone who lives in this area should go check it out!  It's worth it.  Oh by the way if you are wondering, my 38th anniversary is April 4.

This is one of the many waterfalls at Gilroy Gardens, in Gilroy CA.
