an institution offering shelter and support to people who are mentally ill.

The  plants at the  Missouri Botanical Gardens come  close enough to an asylum if you just move a couple of letters and take time to……..

enjoy some of  nature’s spring  beauties……

    Loved that purple and yellow iris too! I haven’t gone to the Garden in such a long time, must do something about that.
