Jensen Botanical Garden in Carmichael

This time of year is very special… it is the last month of the Bahá’í year (March 2- 20) and during that time we observe a fast; getting up each morning a little before dawn making my oatmeal, thinking about the day. Then during the day focusing on how fortunate we are to have all that we have and these hunger pangs are minor… after sunset you can eat. It is a special time here, as it also coincides with spring. Naw-Rúz (Bahá’í new year begins on the 21st – which is the first day of Spring in the N, hemisphere). At any rate, I went to the hardware store and swung by the Botanical Garden – a simple little place on Fair Oaks Blvd.. It was a nice little field trip.
