I rest my eyes on the soothing drifts of foliage of ferns, the Kirengeshoma leaves and the hosta leaves. Also, the rock ledge has a soothing presence in the garden. Wish I had been on this tour with you! I am happy to hear you had time for a break from the rigors of the garden. <em>Layanee, Pretty soon everyone will want to treat their paws to a trench manicure!
