June 18th

A morning of sensory delight in Mebane!

And some practice walking too...

Then we head northward to Monticello in Charlottesville, VI.

If you're ever that way, go visit -- Jefferson's house holds some wonderful creations, just as his gardens do! Such a spectacular view!

Our guide on the garden tour was wonderful! Take the tour, it really was worth it (versus walking at our own pace) - she had some great insights to share...

Did you know... the dianthus is called "Pinkie" because the edges look like they were trimmed with pinking shears?

Some very important pollination at work here!
