Chelsea flower show day

Coolarama! The Chelsea flower show is everything I thought and more — way more people, too; for some odd reason, I never imagined all 157,000 ticket holders showing up on the same day and standing in my way! But even so, it is a gardner’s paradise — and for those of us who are not gardners, it makes us wish, wish, wish we were. And living somewhere with moisture to grow all these amazing flowers! Can you imagine a river of orchids, a sea of delphiniums and digitalis, every bromeliad there is, plus ornamental pineapple in pink and lime?????? And the gardens — makes you drool! The floral arrangements were a Big Drool moment as well. Laird is all set to build a shepard’s wagon for a potting shed.
After an exhausting day, what better than a massage. I just had a terrific one and now it’s time for — what else — dinner! I think all we do is go from one meal to the next, with snacks in between. Man, are we going to have to diet when we get home! What a lovely day, wish we could have shared it with all of you! Floweringly yours, l&j
