Next meeting Not Decided




Nobody had any ideas for July, so I don't know if we are meeting or not. We can always meet here, the gardens are pretty--but there wasn't much interest in that last year--people are busy with other things and on vacay and stuff, so I'm not sure what to do. If anyone has ideas, let's hear them. I want to head to Wavecrest sometime soon, so we can have a PIE day if anyone else wants to go along. Other than that I don't have any ideas. Let me know if anybody gets a brainwave.

A Wonderful day!







Hi everyone--Bobbi took this photo today at the DeFries Garden in New Paris. This is in the Late Summer block of the Calender Garden--just because its August doesn't mean a flower bed has to be all burned up! This is a real jewel of a place--beautifully executed by people who care intensely about what they do. There are a few more pics that will cycle through the slide show too. You can also look at a terrific blog written by a gal who works there--www.defriesgarden.com. We met her today and she is worth the drive all by herself. We will be talking soon about a trip there--hopefully we can arrange to meet the gal who wrote the blog for a tour on that day. And we will have to have lunch at The Quiet Corner as well. It really is a place not to be missed. MANY thanks to Bobbi and Kathy for this fabulous fukawee excursion and kudos to Ms. Bessie Garmin for getting us where we needed to go. And thanks to Bobbi and Kathy for both remembering their cameras (I put mine in my car and naturally left it there) so we could have a pictoral record of the day. And many thanks to Sue for telling us about the garden to begin with! A most worthwhile road trip was had by all!



HTTD!
