We were so lucky to have such a wonderful sunny day for the garden tour. Marg and Sandy's garden was one of eleven on the tour. It was a total success, with 340 visitors between 9 AM and 5 PM.
As I said in the email, they dedicated theirs to Jenny's memory, which was so meaningful. It is also where Jenny and I were married on October 11, 2009.
Here are a few photos from the event. you can enlarge them by clicking on the picture.

all for sale by donation. At the end of the day,
they was $200 in the jar!

Sandy's sister Marilyn made dozens of cookies
to sell at the event. There were
flowers, lady bugs, butterflies, bumble bees and
more. What a hit they were.
