Rhodo-Rama!

I was just walking along in Denny Park the other day, searching for squirrels as usual when something pretty dazzling caught my eye.  It was this rhododendron:
It's gigantic and completely in bloom.  It's a shame rhododendrons don't smell nice like their cousins, azaleas.  Plus, they don't stay in bloom for long.  But for a short time, they're spectacular.  Then they go back to being a large plant that smells weird and likes gloom.
