The Garden Corner




 We were out driving in the area between Wilsonville and Tualatin the other day (June 3, to be exact) and while rounding a tight corner in a wooded area noticed bright orange banners flying on our right. We turned around at the next available road and returned to the spot. The driveway beckoned us into a wonderful corner full of interesting plants and garden furnishings.






The metal diamond is the gong for giant windchimes. I was mesmerized by the deep, sustained tones each tubular chime made.
