Every Spring I look forward to the wonderful events that Sonoma County offers with glee!For those of us who love to look at historical, vintage homes and gardens (GUILTY!) Spring is a treasure trove of opportunities to indulge our love of beautiful homes and charming gardens.
It is always fascinating to me to see other people's living patterns. Their choices are only limited by their minds. Small, cramped dark spaces become wonderful work areas with proper lighting, plush carpeting and neatly stacked baskets and wired boxes organize much needed everyday work tools.I am always delighted by well organized and maintained areas.
Gardens, which I call "outside rooms' offer not only visual delight, especially as the most verdant season of the year unfolds, but a banquet for the other senses as well. The sounds of chirping birds building nests, bees buzzing from bloom to bloom, fresh cuttings from the rose garden and munching on fresh strawberries enrich and refresh our spirit.This profusion of simple pleasures make living in this special place truly a blessing!
Come...if only for a visit!
