This house is on the local beach near where my sister lives on the south coast of England. It was a dull and very overcast day with sporadic rain, and lots of wind. I’ve said before that I’m not too good at landscapes but at least I haven’t given up trying to improve ;0)

The Secret Garden

This is not, necessarily the gate to someone’s private garden. The sign says Maison Privee, Private House. It is on the grounds of La Caille Restaurant and Event Center in Sandy Utah. But, while coming up with the title for this post, I happened upon a review of the book and a preview of the 1993 film and it is now in my Netflix queue, as is A Little Princess. Go ahead. Laugh. But I’m getting pretty tired of all the Marvel  and DC versions of our world. Time for a bit of rose tinted nostalgia.

Never-To-Be-Forgotten Summer

“All in all, it was a never-to-be-forgotten summer — one of those summers which come seldom into any life, but leave a rich heritage of beautiful memories in their going — one of those summers which, in a fortunate combination of delightful weather, delightful friends and delightful doing, come as near to perfection as anything can come in this world.”
