ON JULY 20, THE MASTER GARDENERS OF GRAYS HARBOR HELD THE 2013 GARDEN TOUR. I INVITED GAIL TO GO WITH ME, MY TREAT. SHE DROVE AND WE LEFT AMERICAN SUNSET AT 10:00 SATURDAY MORNING. WE DIDN'T GET HOME UNTIL 6:00 P.M. WE HAD A GREAT TIME!!WE TOURED SEVEN GARDENS.
ALL THE GARDENS WERE BEAUTIFUL........
GAIL AND I TALKED TO THE OWNER OF THIS GARDEN, SHE SAID THE DEER ACTUALLY CLIMBER THESE STEPS AND ATE HER TOMATOES!!
ALL THE GARDENS WERE IN OR AROUND HOQUIAM, WA.

AFTER TOURING THIS GARDEN GAIL THOUGHT SHE WOULD LIKE SOME KIND OF FOUNTAIN AT AMERICAN SUNSET.
I LOVED THE PINKS AND BLUES IN THIS GARDEN!!
