A Way To Unwind
Downtown San Luis Obispo

The blooming Jacaranda Trees
I have just spent the last two days, from 9-5, serving on Jury Duty! For the most part, I was in a chair, sitting still, in windowless rooms, attempting to listen attentively and NOT nod off! We are released for lunch, and I've quickly made my way outside, choosing to walk to a resturant.
There is an additional element of beauty in S.L.O. at this time of year: the incredibly gorgeous, periwinkle colored, fragrant, blossoming Jacaranda trees! I took my camera today, in hopes of being able to get some shots of a few of these beauties, which are sprinkled all around the city!
As soon as they dismissed us this afternoon, I headed straight for the car, grabbed the camera, and found the first photogenic Jacarandas at the Mission. I dilly-dallied my way to the freeway, looking for other Jacarandas, and ended up at a little town park.
This was a beautiful and peaceful place to enjoy the setting sun, the stunning colors and perfect weather!
A GREAT way to unwind after being cooped up in a Jury box!!
