Since I am here I might as well chat it up a bit. I can't tell you how much I am enjoying my job at the show garden. It is the most peaceful place on earth and I get to be there everyday.

The show garden has been created in a natural setting and spreads over 28 acres surrounded by trees that include cedars at least 100 years old. It is like heaven to me. Wherever you look the beauty just takes your breath away and pops your eyes wider then saucers.

I work mostly at the admissions gate and the gift and plant shop. While there is always a view of some garden spaces the real thrill is to take the time to walk the main gardens. Sometimes I guide groups of visitors through the gardens. Otherwise I usually come to work an hour early at least once a week to see all the changes and to sit for a while quietly on a bench overlooking some of my favourite spots.

Oh I could go on and on because to even think about it I feel uplifted. I intend to bring my camera along with me on my next walk. I will post some so you see just how beautiful it really is.

I have been a very bad girl tonight. Don't anyone look at the time of this post. Especially you Sun.... lol.

Hope everyone is doing well and seeing the beauty that surrounds you. I know from experience how hard it can be sometimes to see anything through the clouds of darkness that can sometimes block our view. I also know from experience that there are days when the sun does come out to put the light back in our eyes.

Wherever we may be.... up or down, clear or confused, at peace or in turmoil.... as one we subdue as many we renew.

In a spirit of peace and harmony I bid you goodnight or rather goodmorning.
