Give Me A Garden of Beautiful Flowers Where I Can Walk Undisturbed



This whole scene resulted when I stopped to snap a quick photo of flowers lining a random dude's driveway. He saw us, turned out to be friendly, and ended up extending an invitation to hang out in his garden oasis of a backyard. Making friends with the neighbors is fun.

*Title quote by Walt Whitman

Also, this:

The glory of a garden: 
hands in the dirt, 
head in the sun, 
heart with nature.

    Roses in bloom... yes please! We just saw some lovely ones in the Tivoli Gardens outside Rome. I wanted to linger there forever.

    In a perfect world, I would have a huge garden and the time to tend to it. I want to do nothing else these days!
