English Garden Confessions

We are very lucky to have many nice attraction in our town, especially Merlin's Hollow, the English garden that is free and open to public four times a year. The English garden has gardens within. Each has its own character or theme. These are some of the photos of the flowers I captured. I probably captured over 80 different species, but believe or not the garden has over 1500. That is a lot, and it is only on 1 acre of land.



What confessions you may say? Well I have not been here for a while. Life is busy and keeping us out of trouble. I am still with Matthew. He is not going to school this year, but next year. I better enjoy this time even more. I know I will miss him.



Oh, I forgot about the confessions. The confession I have is that I started a local blog in our town Living In Aurora. I noticed that over the 13 years lot changed in our town. So for the record, I started to post pictures locally from our town and write. I write my opinions. I try to stay away from politics, as it is very confusing topic to be involve in, but I vote.



I felt like I was walking the streets and trails and saw so much. I started to share. I started to see the growth, so I started to take more pictures. I started to see flaws in our town, so I started to get involved. I think it was time for me to raise my opinions publicly.



I guess you know why I have been absent here. Yes I been spending more time there. But no worries, this blog My Only Photo and Story Blog was born with Matthew and I am not leaving the premises. I may post less, and visit less, but I will be here.



I hope you enjoyed my English garden flower showcase for today.
