Is there still a 'promenade' there? We used to go to the 'prom' a lot as kids.

The little boy is adorable. His face is so lit up with fun, a happy little boy

Excellent pics and info boys. Nice one.

Rhododendron Path

Sick of the photographs
of oil-slicked pelicans
from the Gulf oil spill,

the chat about culpability
of corporate executives
and playboy serial killers,

I wish instead just to dream
like Millais' "Bubbles" and wander
the rhododendron path
of a childhood park.
