Hatley Park National Historic Site

I went out to Hatley Park National Historic Site yesterday to take a look at the Italian Garden that is adjacent to the castle. It was just as splendid as usual and we'll look at a bit more of it next week. Above is one of the four seasons garden statues that stand around the edges of the garden.

Harvest Time

Well, the leaves are turning already - summer's almost gone and it seems like it only started yesterday. There hasn't been much real hot weather here this year, just a few days here and there. Today's photo is one of the statues in the Italian Garden at Hatley Castle. There are four of these, each representing a different season. I think today's is the one representing the autumn harvest because of the sheaves of grain she is holding.

She's thinking, "Gee, I rilly like his hair but maybe I should tell him sun block works better if you spread it around...." He's thinking, "She's like awesome but her dog looks heavy...." I love places that sell garden statuary. There's a couple along Store Street here. Capital Iron is the best but this one (Chintz & Co) also has a nice selection.
