Some days I really enjoy my job

[thunderbolt]

Well, most days. I finally got to get some pics of Charley and Elwood the swans "flying" down to get fed. They can't get off the ground since they are both pinioned, but they get going pretty good across the water.




Here's an older pic of Charley

And the money shot of Bok Tower

Would love to hear the bells of that tower

Bet they sound great

It's a shame they don't allow anyone inside

I have been hating my job latley...... I do not want to get into it but the stress factor has been spiked as of late!

And then I feel like I should not complain since I am still working and count my blessings!

The wear and tear on the interior to wide open tours is one concern, the fact that there is only one entrance is an issue, too. Employees and volunteers get tower tours as part of the job. I've been 3 times, once to the very top.

Is just the tower closed to the public or the entire park?

The Gardens are open to the public 365 days a year.
