My few days in Rochester had to include a visit to Highland Park on the southside. This treasure of a park, designed by renowned park designer Frederick Law Olmsted in the late 1800s hosts the annual Lilac Festival, which had just concluded a few days before my visit.
It was a warm evening just before Memorial Day.
The lilacs were perhaps a few days past their peak.
But were still quite beautiful.
The air was filled with that lovely scent.
A scent which immediately brings back my childhood.
There's something comforting in seeing new
generations introduced to the wonders of lilacs.
