Well, I leave San Francisco on Monday. While I'm looking forward to going home (I miss my husband) I'm really going to miss California. But I will definitely be back. I finally got to the dahlia garden in Golden Gate Park - it's a bit late in the season so a lot of them were starting to die back, but they were still beautiful. Some of them, remind me of sea anemones - I'm not sure if it's the colors or the way their petals sort of curl around to look almost tubular - but I can picture them underwater swaying in the current with a cute little clown fish darting in and out of their petals. This could be a new adventure for Nemo! I love those Pixar movies.
My sister would love the dahlia garden, well actually the entire park with all the beautiful gardens. I love it to, but from a different perspective; she as a gardener, me as one who has trouble keeping a silk plant alive! I think it would be fabulous to have gardens like these, but it just isn't realistic for me. As much as I hate to admit that, it's true. So for now I will have to be content getting my flowers from the flower shop rather than my personal cutting garden.
How would you like to have a conservatory like this - great huh? Well it's time for me to go to sleep. Hope you enjoyed the dahlias as much as I did. I have two more days to work in a ride on the carousel - let's see if I make it. I was looking through the glass today, it wasn't open yet, maybe instead of a horse I should ride a giraffe! How cool would that be?
