Another Secret Garden

While I away at the Namicolin Resort in Pennsylvania, I walked around the grounds.  I was starting to be disappointed be all the formal green landscaping.  Where were the flower gardens???  Then I turned the corner and found this little patio full of statues and flowers.

 So I walked around and took some pictures. 

I loved the orange on these flowers.

 Of course the pink caught my eye!

Then when I was leaning over I found this guy tucked in the leaves.  He is so pretty with the blue and orange colors.

God’s glory shines through

His creation.

Have a blessed day!

Weekend In Review

I thought I would share my weekend with you all using, Instagram.  I love this App! The kids dressed up like cows in order to get free food from Chick-Fil-A on Friday.

Sarah and Matthew celebrating Cow Appreciation Day!  First free breakfast!

Then they met up with their other cow friends for some lunch.

Then they headed to a wedding rehearsal.   

While the kids were gone, we went to my favorite garden center to get a house warming gift for my son and his girlfriend.  I got distracted by all these pretty blue pots.

Then I turn around and see THIS!  They are so creative, using a Weber grill for a mini garden.

 Does anyone have an extra grill they don't want. 

Here is the top of the grill.  Look at those tiny boots, so cute!

How about an old wagon? 

I see a mini garden in my future.

You better hide your kids shoes when I come over or they may end up with plants in them.  Soooooo cute.

This guy got to this feeder during the week.  We moved it out to the middle of our window.  He looks a little sad that he can no longer reach the seed. 

 On Sunday we went to visit Christopher and Kara at their new apartment.  They made fondue.  We had a wonderful cheese fondue and a yummy caramel dessert fondue. 

Well that was our weekend in pictures. 

 Thanks for stopping by and have a blessed week!

Secret Garden

 

 Let me set the scene..... My freind Jule took me out to breakfast at the Tin Pan Galley in Sackets Harbor, NY.  It is the cutest little harbor town, on Lake Ontario. 
Besides serving this delicious stuffed french toast, they have a little secret!

Behind this apple tree is the entrance to their garden. The resturant grows all their own herbs, fruits, veggies and flowers in the "backyard".

 This is an apple tree they have trained to grow on a metal framing.  It is so cool.  It was hard to photograph, but you get the idea.

This is the back side of the tree.

 When you walk through the arch you are hit by all the fragrant herbs and flowers.

I love daisies!

Cute garden shed and yes, I took a picture of that bum on purpose.

 So after the checking out that garden we walked down the street to some shops.  But you know me, I get side tracked by FLOWERS.  Look at this pretty front yard garden.  They built a little fairy garden arch.  So many pretty flowers!

There were so many gardens to look at,

I could have shot for hours. 

Thanks for stopping by my little bolg. 

 Have a blessed day!
