Kyle has stopped to take photos of this beautiful garden a couple of times, now. This is a lovely shot from the first day. The garden is a part of an estate I have lusted after for years! Most of my friends, when they visit Texas for the first time, are subjected to a drive-by viewing of this amazing Tudor style house and it’s assorted outbuildings we can see from the road. We drive by this place almost any time we go anywhere. In recent years, the owners of the property have poured mega-bucks into developing and beautifying the land around the house. It always had a nice sloping lawn leading to a fairly sizeable pond, with a pretty little gazebo. Now, the perimeter of the property sports a fabulous iron fence, and the garden has erupted into what appears to be a maze of walkways, arches, follies, fountains, and beautiful plants. This fountain is but one small attraction. And the whole thing is very un-Texan! It seems too green and lush, and a little too “English” for Fort Worth, Texas.
I figure *this* is really how the other half lives!!
