Romantic Places

Hello everyone,
   We had a beautiful sunny weekend here on the Island . We were part of a Summerside garden club tour this afternoon so we had lots of lovely visitors to our garden again today.
   Since,I like to add some romantic little places to the garden I thought you might enjoy a peek as well.
The comfy vintage chaise has found a home in this small enclosed garden that is almost hidden from view from the rest of the garden.It is a charming place to sit and enjoy a good book and a cup of tea or a glass of lemonade.




This wicker chair in the garden speaks of romance -don't you think?

Well, that is a couple of romantic places in our garden but later I will be back with more.

Tomorrow is supposed to be another fine day and I am off to my photography boot camp-should be interesting!

Thank you for visiting me,

Carolyn

Glorious day to you, Carolyn!

Another stunning post, my friend! And, now that I've been to your garden, I can appreciate it all the more!

My hubby and I wish to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your warm and gracious hospitality when we visited you and Andrew last week. Meeting you both and seeing your gardens was everything I thought it would be and so much more! The trip was one of the highlights of our lives, and it did so much to rejuvenate us after a long, hard year.

I am certain the gorgeous gardens you have created touch the soul of everyone who experiences them. We came away with the most beautiful memories and will always be grateful to you for that...

We are looking forward with much anticipation to seeing you again soon in the not-to-distant future! Wishing you a beautiful day!

Luvs and hugs,
Linda and Midge

Dear Carolyn,

You know how to make things look beautiful! All those ladies visiting your garden must be delighted!!!

Glad you had some sunny weather. We had rain all weekend :-(! I hope next weekend will be better. I am hosting a tea party with seven 'blog' ladies on Saturday.

Happy new week,

Dear Carolyn, Surely anyone who is lucky enough to rest in your 'romantic places' will be transformed by the surrounding beauty, peace and magic. Oh my, are we to expect your photography to be improved!!? Lovely, Lovely post.

Hi Carolyn,
Such lovely photos of your garden space. Sorry I missed your tours. We were away for the first one and Sunday we grabbed a day at the beach, as there are so few of them this Summer. I'm sure you're enjoying Boot Camp and you're going to be wowing us all with even better photography even tho I cannot imagine it getting any better than it already is! Have a beautiful day.

Blessings,
Sandi
