This bronze statue stands in front of House of Hope Presbyterian Church. The angel is holding an anchor.
St. Luke's Catholic Church is an architectural delight in this neighborhood. Its stone facade is ornately decorated and has an imposing presence on Summit Avenue.
Some additional tree sculptures on Summit Avenue, this first is a woman holding an urn; the second shows a woman with a parasol.
On this August day the weather was perfect for a late summer picnic at Harriet Island in Minneapolis. Adjacent to the lake is a rose garden where all the roses were in full bloom and full fragrance. The landscape below shows just one section of this lovely garden.
With a little photo editing, I am able to show some great detail on some of the garden's best roses and flowers.
One section of the rose garden is devoted to wild and native flowers featuring several varieties of Black-eyed Susan.
We also see these Green-eyed Susan, although they are not as popular as the black-eyed variety.
There are two fountains in the rose garden, here is one of them. At least three bridal parties were having photo shoots around the fountains today.
