I Asked and I Received



April 19, 2018

In “Ask and Ye Shall Receive” (September 18, 2016) I said that I’d like to be able fly to the Berkshires to see the leaves at their peak, or to DC to see the cherry blossoms, without having to plan a vacation in advance that might miss the best dates altogether.

Then I discovered that Pere Marquette Park has beautiful foliage within an hour’s drive. All I needed, I said, was some cherry blossoms nearby, and I could dispense with the private jet wish.

Done.

The botanical garden’s cherry blossoms aren’t as spectacular, I assume, as the ones in Washington, D.C., but they do put on a pretty good display.

I asked and I received.
