(For more details about the watershed, check out the past postings for July 2, 1011 and September 7, 2011) The colors have been wonderful these past weeks as seen here. It is a beautiful time of year.

Places of quiet, solitude, reflection, and awe.

This is Part 3 of three different postings. - - - Choose as many as you care to view.

Aster & Veronica

At this time of year while walking through the different garden rooms, one finds there are many soft and muted colors showing in the Gardens at Waters East. The shades of pinks, blues, yellows, and browns, seen in the blooms and even in the clouds – announce that Fall is here. Can Winter be far behind?

The following photos were all taken within these last days of September. Now is the time to sit back and enjoy the final weeks of the growing season. Lots of Winter preparations yet to be done - - that can wait, for now just enjoy.
