Take a stroll through the land of the Rhodo's, Elves, and wee Irish nomes!!!

To Shaun's secret garden...

Yippeee!!! It is morning:)
    I was taking a walk around Shaun's (milltownmeadow) gardens one day, Shaun was mentioning his garden's and being as he seems to have such little time taking pictures of his garden....he gave me this great idea and his permission to take photo's of his garden. (hahaha a light blub moment). I rent a lower suite in Shaun's great house so I am very lucky to wake up every morning to this lovely secret garden. I love his garden's out here in this great land, they are beautiful so up I got early this morning the sun was just starting to shine, took my trusty dog and away I went.  I knew I only had a bit of time, as I was also going out on a hike to Thetis Lake Park this morning (blog to follow), then came home this afternoon and took some more photo's of Shaun's great gardens.
Come sit here...!!!
  They are over a couple of acres of such beauty, and they have only just begun to bloom, little ponds, many old and rare rhodo bushes from all over the world.  Many little nooks and crannies to sit a contemplate, look out over the ocean, or take a blanket and take a good book and read some.  It's is so peaceful, there is a sweet smell in the air, Don't know which bush), the birds are all twitterpatting, and making great songs, babies are starting to hatch, much activity going on.  The bees are busy pollinating all the tree blossoms, birds pecking at the ground, some bathing in the dirt....deer are roaming, the bunnies are out and about...such activity.

So take a stroll through Shaun's secret place....when he is home to enjoy it....
At least when I am here I get to enjoy this place...thanks Shaun.

Have a great walk!!!
