GARDEN TOUR

 

 

Dear daughter and I went on the Tangletown Garden Tour 2013 yesterday - a summer tour we look forward to every year and don't make always.  It was her birthday wish to go this year and I was able to accommodate her wish!!  We had so much fun, although we had a late start and it was a rainy cool day.

 

House number 5 was probably my favorite.  OMG these people have a garden!!  They even have been featured in a Midwest Magazine article.  They have purchased property from their neighbors as they have put their homes up for sale and added to their yard/gardens.  There is a rose garden, wisteria arbor, rock garden, vegetable garden.....on and on.  There were two artists on site, that put their artwork into the garden as an added feature.
                                                                                

There was even this little shed with a wooden goat on the roof.
                                                    
                                                                              

 

 

It is amazing to see what people do with their yards, filling spaces with such beauty and peacefulness.
I am always inspired, but know the reality for me is difficult as those little deer that I love to watch, eat a lot of what I plant.  It was a lovely day with my lovely daughter.
