An Apt Description

"A garden is to be enjoyed, and should satisfy the mind and not only the eye of the beholder. Sounds such as the rustle of bamboo and the dripping of water, scents and sensations such as grass or gravel or stone underfoot, appeal to the emotions and play a part in the total impression."

 

Penelope Hobhouse

 

This image was captured at the Japanese Garden in Portland, Oregon. When I read the above quotation, it seemed the author was describing that location.

 

Here's to us all finding gardens to wander through.
