Feel free to visit if you want me to school you in a game of checkers.
Or watch giant goldfish.
Quick, put on an apron and give the house a sweep.
Or learn a few things in the alphabet garden. Hello, do you know Lamb's Ear actually feels like a lamb's ear? What smarty came up with that?
Dear Elwood, Illinois,
Sorry oil refineries and the Chicago Speedway box you in, but you sure do know how to grow a good children's garden.
I love it when communities encourage community. Yep, sure do.
Where have you noticed community in your world?: :
Have you embraced the sure factor?

Love it! Yes, I do :)
Oh, I want a little garden like that in my back yard. Not sure it could handle the ten fast feet that smash my grass, but I would sit there and sweep out that cute little house and enjoy that soft lamb's ear :)
I'll have to remember this when we drive through Illinois to see my family in Michigan-- who knows, maybe it's on our way!
I so love that place. It's a little bit of unexpected and much needed magic in a very dark place. Hope you're having fun! Love you :)
i love that place! since i don't live in a neighborhood, i have to seek out community. well, we belong to a community pool about 15 minutes from home, where my younger boy gets to experience the community of wiffleball with a pack of boys. while i ecperience the community of reading/book discussion with women i never see any other time of the year. so. yeah. i see community. i PAY for it, but whatever.
What are you doing in IL? That looks fantastic, by the way. I'm moving in too. Grab me an apron.
That looks like the perfect place to hang-out!!!
Darling! I would move there too..but then the plants would die..and it would have to lose it's name "garden"!
Love the pictures!
