Hometown Tourism- Part 1!

                                                      While my friend Paddy...


...was here in Philadelphia recently...


                                     ...we didn't spend all of our time in the studio!



                                                On this particular Autumn day...




                               ...we spent a glorious morning walking en plein air...



                                                ...at the Chanticleer Gardens!



                                     It's a lovely and human scaled kind of place...



                                      ...filled with unusual and regional plantings...









                                                   ...and whimsical touches...








                                                  ...like these Plant List boxes.












                                               If you ever come to Philadelphia...





                                                      ...it's well worth a visit!





                                      Next time: we tour another kind of garden! ;)
