Vollie Day 11: Chills

Winter wasn't going to show up - April and May were spectacularly warm, but there has finally been some frost in the last couple of weeks.  This morning was a good day to be inside.  I got to chat with a couple of groups of people about the apparently sparse forests, as they're almost all dormant now.  A lovely family holidaying from Sri Lanka even took a lot of pictures of us all.

Over the last week, the staff and volunteers have put the winter coats on the dragon trees, and people are even less inclined to venture outside.  Still, there was a large group on their way to the very south end of the Arboretum, and good health to them.
