Gardens by the Bay

During the spring season there is nothing more enjoyable than recalling travels where you have an opportunity of seeing cultural sites. But, on todays agenda I am reviewing the gardens of Singapore, looking at photographs of organized spaces that have the most exotic plants, while re-reading notes made of the local flowers that may be possibly grown at Heath. On a recent excursion our team was in central Singapore adjacent to the Marina Reservoir where there is a nature park that spans 250 acres, and consists of three waterfront gardens. The government has transformed the city by creating Gardens by the Bay, which consist of conservatories, groves of trees with themed gardens.

And, one themed garden is from one of my favorite childhood book’s Alice in Wonderland, where the peculiar, anthropomorphic creatures such as the Cheshire Cat and the White Rabbit still exist.

Plan stylishly,

Winter Storm Toby

The team arrived back to the States from Shanghai and Singapore just in time for Winter Storm Toby. The east coast was besieged with ice, wind and snow. Lately, have you noticed this wind, and I am not referring to those of you in Chicago. Seriously, what is with this turbulence? Our power was out for three and half days because, of the wind two weeks ago. I am so over winter, and dreaming of warmer weather and cooking outdoors!!!

Here are few of my favorites photos from yesterday morning, as the mid-Atlantic took the first hit from Toby.

Stay warm,
