I have a friend who lives here and this sounds like something she would love.  Too bad she's down in her back.

Hey, Marchel.

I understand. I learned that when one goes to these tours, one should dress comfortable with walk shoes, water bottle, sun screen, hat, etc.

Hi Jim,

Lots of good stuff going on this weekend.  The secret garden one sounds intriguing.  Have a great time if you go and pick up some new ideas.

Hey, Everybody.

I'm hoping to make at least one of the Garden tours. I'd love to go the Secret Garden tour since that sounds more intriguing.
