Spring Diversions.....

 We had some extra days on our schedule.....

so we added  a visit to North Carolina as a destination. 

When we had lived in Virginia in the 1980s, 

we had visited this lovely Garden. 

I was excited to see it once again.  

It did not disappoint.  

Lovely places to sit and relax....

...an abundance of flowers to enjoy. 

I came home with many ideas for my garden....

....and inspiration for the things I could only dream of. 

It had been many years since 

we had been there with our young family. 

I didn't have much of a green thumb in those days. 

Pretty sure I was just busy with growing young ones!!!

This garden is enchanting....

....and timeless.  

 I was so grateful to enjoy it once again.
