Outdoor Wednesday. . .Buchart Gardens

Check out the 'eye candy'. . .
Many different waterscapes along the paths

Acres of beautiful landscaping
More water works!!! You can enjoy 5 different seasons throughout the year. . .
These pictures were taken over a year ago, when we visited Buchart Gardens on Vancouver Island! This is one of the most Heavenly places ever. . .It began as a lime quarry years ago, Mrs. Buchart had the vision and the means to turn it into a beautiful paradise for her family to enjoy. . .Now people from all over the world come and visit her famous gardens. . .Just looking back through the pictures made me want to go outside in the yard and plant something!!!
