I LOVE Why Not. Sighing! , wish, wish, wish I had a GH.

Ursula, you need to vacation in FL and make a stop in SC along the way.

When I lived near Carter & Holmes walking through their GH's was amazing and theirs were in bloom - at least enough of them to make your jaw drop. They ask women to lock their purses in the car because it is possible to accidentally knock flowers off with a swinging handbag as you walk the narrow aisles. The flowers literally hang down in your face. After two or three houses you are dizzy. The colors, the scents and the low prices are overwhelming.
Minds are like parachutes; they work better when they are open.
