Here we are – the DARling Dames. This is a wonderful picture taken at the National Arboretum by a “volunteer” shooter. I handed him my camera and asked him to take two shots. Whenever I do this the results are almost always blurry. However, this young man operated the camera focus and shutter properly and snapped with a steady hand. Wish I could thank him again.
We had a most lovely day on Tuesday, planned and partially funded by our DARling Dame Penney. We travelled from Virginia via a long white limousine to the National Arboretum, across from the Capitol in Washington DC. There was an alphabet of orchids displayed inside; a beauteous display. We returned via our shiny white limo and dined at the Cheesecake Factory. Who can ask for more from a day in the life of a Red Hat Lady? The Slide Show
