Nature Walks – Gardens of Glory – Part 3 – Everyday Heroes

I have one more “garden of glory” to share with you. This one was at the City of Westminster’s City Center. It was honoring our everyday heroes, from the farmers who first settled the area to the brave firefighters and police officers who protect us all everyday.

This gorgeous cactus is what really caught my eye and inspired this “garden of glory” tour. It is so healthy and vibrant.

The rest of the gardens, from the succulents to the flower gardens, were just as beautiful and just as vibrant.

This is ONE HUGE and tall cactus! Look closely. There are little bud pockets all up and down the length of it.

I was there when the tower bells were chiming too. They sounded so pretty. There are 24 bells in this tower, and this is 2nd largest bell tower in Colorado. This bell tower is called the Big Ben of the West, standing at 136 feet tall.

Life is full of surprises. Just open your eyes and look around you. You will be amazed at what’s available and all around. Have a great day and make everyday great.
