Master Garden Walk in Cedar Rapids Iowa



On July 8th, we went with our friends, Barb and Larry, to the Master Gardens Walk. We visited those gardens that were flower gardens and skipped the raised vegetable gardens although we did see some of that. The first house we visited was a friend of Barb's who she does stained glass art. She had quite a bit of her art in her yard. The second place we visited a garden railroad in G Scale. Later we visited one of the homes that had raised vegetable beds and they had started a prairie restoration project.

 I'd like to find this stand. It looks like a spider and the ball is its back.




 I love Hosta but, unfortunately, in Texas it just doesn't work!


2nd Home with the Train Exhibit

 I cant imagine keeping this train working with the Iowa winters!







 I love this sea monster
