My friend Ruth sure knows how to garden! I was over at her house this summer and took this… any idea what it is?

For a short time I lived in Washington State when I was a little girl. Other than the rain every day, I remember seeing beautiful rows of trees like this. I was traveling up north on a windy, windy spring day and saw these trees with rows of fruit trees beyond them, just starting to blossom. It doesn’t matter what time of year it is there, it’s always beautiful.

If you live in West Michigan and like art, you’ll want to hurry over to the Forest Hills Fine Arts Center before November 19.
