I’m a little reluctant to post about Patterson Garden. It’s such a lovely, quiet spot in Saskatoon, but I know what will happen if too many people find out about it. It will end up being like every other park in this city: full of noisy kids, entitled wedding parties, and loads and loads of dog poop. This arboretum is just too beautiful for that. If you don’t believe me, take a look.

It was maybe a bit too bright outside to be taking pictures, but that just made it a good chance to practice photography basics. And that alone is a good reason to hope this garden stay quiet, but being able to just relax in nature is so lovely. Especially with the kind of colors that only nature can provide in these cooler autumnal days.
