This Sunday for the first time in a long time, I went to the
Morton Arboretum. Jaime and I had a blast riding the trails (in the air-conditioned car of course) looking at all the beautiful trees and meadows and their many lakes/ponds. I even got to see a few Ginkgos (my favorite tree!) It was so peaceful, except for the occasional enormous bug that would appear (gotta look at the website to understand). We went through the large maze, the children's garden with its fun tree house, and we even found the Morton family cemetery, which was very interesting.
One of the funniest things we saw were two signs pointing to either the "Shrub of the Month" or the "Tree of the Month". The signs made us think of businesses that have "Employees of the Month" and we wondered what exactly did the tree and shrub do to get such recognition?!

Pretty funny! Glad you had such a good time!
What is a shrub exactly? Is it a small bush? Maybe this particular shrub grew the most out of all the other shrubs in the past month? Or possibly it did an act of kindness to a nearby weed? Glad you a Googly Bear had a nice day together. Can't wait to meet him!
