Screenshot of my Google Map of my visit to BBG on Forsythia Day
The post title and the image above are linked to my first attempt at using the new MyMaps feature of Google Maps. Let me know if/how it works for you. Is this annoying? Helpful? Interesting? Too geeky? Too slow?
The path shows the route I took, roughly, through BBG the day of my visit. Most of the areas and placemarks on the map along the way contain photos. The photos in turn are linked to their Flickr pages. You can also just browse the Flickr set of photos from my visit.
Here are some of the photos from my visit.
Forsythia Distribution
Rock Garden
I did get to see the Rock Garden as I had planned. I wasn’t disappointed. I don’t usually get to see this garden. It just seems off the beaten path during my usual visits. I want to visit it more often.

I took a look at your photos on Flickr. Very nice. It must have been fun to visit this garden. I enjoyed all of the photos labeled with botanical names. Especially the Okame cherry blossoms.
I think it’s fun! I’m going to try it.
