Today's weather continued to be temperate and more seasonal. It's wonderful to see things growing again and so many things in bloom. Love all of the colors, textures and scents of the flowers.
Yesterday, visited the gardens of Blithewood Manor in Bristol RI. So much to take in. In addition to some well tended and beautifully planned gardens, the estate has a fine arboretum of rare trees including a Giant Sequoia. After touring the gardens, explored some of Bristol which has some fine houses. Definitely worth exploring further.

I have been to Blithewold. It is a beautiful place. i have a bunch of pictures i will put into a shutterfly album and send to you. We also went into Newport for a garden tour. It was a great day. Is the bamboo still at Blithewold? It was neat walking around in it. It is the only bamboo of it's type in the US. I went with a members group from the Seaport a few years ago. Congratulations on your new blog. I will be checking in!!!

Yes Ann, the bamboo's still there. Can't believe that it's taken me this long to discover Blithewold and Bristol. Plan to return at a future date.
