I will say one thing about you wonderful people on this Forum, if you want to get an education, just tune into this Forum. Don?t feel too badly about your hometown being in disastrous straits with its economy, George. Unfortunately we who live in this area of US and generally country-wide are in the same boat. My hometown, which I have lived in all my life, has been trying to accomplish a ?downtown? revitalization for the past 20 to 25 years, I was very involved in that movement along with local government, but due to the aging process of me, hard for me to remain active. The retail sectors here and elsewhere in the country are suffering quite badly.
But this is a Gardening Forum and one thing is certain, particularly with the members living in the UK and elsewhere that they take their gardening, very, very seriously. WHICH IS GREAT! There is nothing quite so uplifting to the soul, as the sight of a beautifully maintained flower garden!
Speaking of same, rather than for me to do another posting in the Garden Photography, I pushed the button on the my camera the first time this past Sunday, at a visit to Kubota Gardens, which is a Japanese Garden quite close by, maintained by the City of Seattle Parks Department. It is the most relaxing garden I have ever been in, with new views with every turn in the path(s). Came home with about 15 shots, quite good, even if I do say so myself. But, how could I ruin anything as beautiful as it is? Might try to share with you in a short while.
Weather here is also lousy, raining today, too!
