Anyone who keeps the ability ....
Hello and welcome to my new blog, which marks the start of 2010. The Garden Book of Days will be published every other day and will feature gardens, garden scenes and plants from around the world. When they are cross-referenced to a garden that I have visited in my other blog: "The Galloping Gardener", there will be a link for you to click to see the garden review.
Anyone who keeps the ability to see beauty never grows old.
Franz Kafka
