I hope to visit then as well! This garden was in deep shade until two years ago when a large tree fell and destroyed almost everything.  Now the gardener has completely redone the garden with more sun loving plants.  It\u2019s a beautiful oasis in an otherwise pleasant, but unmemorable suburban neighborhood!   <\/p>\n<p>My own gardens are giving me a lot of pleasure this year, the second year in a row when I feel there is not much work to do. There is an old saying that if you are happy with your gardens, it\u2019s probably time to move!  In my case, I hope to enjoy this satisfied feeling for a few more years before having to start over!<\/p>\n<p>My work for this week includes finishing the historic reinterpretation tapestry (you can bet I\u2019ll take photos when I celebrate the cutting off!), attempting madder dyeing again with my next batch of roots (from <a style=\"color: rgb(102, 51, 102);\" href=\"http:\/\/www.hillcreekfiberstudio.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Hillcreek Fiber Studio<\/a>), and spinning more corrie on my little Golding spindle.
