Thanks for stopping by! I will have Part 2 of my visit next week .

I love gardening and Gardens , I think it is because God's first choice for our home was in a Garden .I will leave you with this wonderful verse form the Bible .

"The Lord God took them and put them  in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it." Genesis  2:15
