Belle Isle is a Island park in the Detroit River, which allows picturesque views of the city and Windsor Ontario


Made completely of marble





One more sign that the city is on the way back


A gem for Detroit

Scary


This gardening year has been a trying one to say the least.
With my recent Illness and lack of attention to my gardens' it's a wonder any thing got done.


 Our Michigan weather went from winter to summer. Spring was brief and cold, I don't even remember spring.


Yards were being re-designed and re-planted from all the of plant materials that were lost due to our past winter.
I had clients doing major remolding projects on their homes, so gardens were put on hold.


A cool  summer so far.


This is going to be one of those scary gardening seasons.
