I drove to Durham, North Carolina yesterday to meet up with co-workers who are here for their team meetup. As soon as I arrived, I picked up a text message that the group was leaving in 15 minutes to go to the Duke gardens — did I want to join?

I dropped my bag in my room, grabbed my camera, and met them in the lobby to ride over together.

The gardens were stunning.

I didn’t get much work done yesterday, but I sure enjoyed these flowers, and the time I got to spend with my colleagues.
