Other Garden Pictures

Sorry posting has been very light this month.  Its a combo of being busy with other things and my garden wilting and generally looking sickly as a result of the incredibly hot, dry summer we have been having in Illinois.  I'm off on vacation to Yellowstone tomorrow, but will be back to cooking and crafting once I get home.  In the meantime, enjoy some pictures of other people's gardens.


Starved Rock State Park
I went to Starved Rock a couple weeks ago and stumbled across this little garden.  I think it is probably used as a kitchen garden since it was right next to the restaurant.  I like the cute little signs identifying the plants.

Hyatt Lodge
I recently attended a wedding at the Hyatt Lodge on the McDonald's Campus in Oakbrook Illinois.  Yes, THAT McDonald's...the property in Oakbrook is home to Hamburger University where McDonald's management is trained.  It might seem like a weird place for a wedding, but the property was really beautiful and I couldn't resist taking pictures of the flowers in the outdoor courtyard area.
