Bryn Mawr Garden Tour

New House, new landscaping!

It's been two weeks and we are pretty much unpacked.

58 bags of mulch later!

When we sit on the deck, it's like sitting in the woods.

I

This huge spruce tree has a weeping form.



A fun place for the grandkids to hang out.

Our new yard is half the size of the last house, so less mowing.  

I'd like this rock farther out in the yard, but I don't think it's going anywhere soon.

Room for more hostas.

Wild Ginger



Lots of room for more hostas.

I'd like this rock farther out in the yard, but it's not going anywhere soon.

We've started on the inside.  Why do they glue towel bars to the wall?

Lots of dated flooring from 1984.  Next week we are pulling up all the tile and carpet for hardwoods on the main floor.  It's going to be a big project!

Hotels

Love a good hotel!  These are two of my favorites on our trip along the gulf.

Orange Beach Hotel

This local paper must tell you about the winter clientele!

Chateau Hotel

French Quarter

Did you bring your horse?

Loved the courtyard, it was like four different buildings combined to make one hotel.

Pool was nice to look at, too cold to swim!

The room was old, but clean. 

And breakfast delivered each morning.

It doesn't get better!
