Brooke and I took a short trip up to Garfield Park Conservatory today and what a nice break from the January chill. While everything outside is gray everything inside was sure green, except the fish. There were a lot of others that thought this was a good idea too. If it wasn’t for the required time reservation and covid card check I bet the place would have been even busier. We noticed that there were basically three different types or groups of people were at the greenhouse. The first and most obvious are the families with small children, what a great place to get out of the house and let the kids burn off some energy. The second was older, possibly retired, adult couples. I was surprised at how many of them were toating large cameras. The last group, which Brooke pointed out, is groups of young hip art types. Makes sense, its a cool place to meet and it’s free.
