A Visit to Brookgreen Garden


What a great few days it has been! Our Monday road trip to Brookgreen Garden, Huntington Beach, and Myrtly beach was a blast. Luckily we left early in the morning, because we had a flat tire on the way... and of course the tire couldn't be plugged and I had to buy a new one. We recovered from the set back and didn't let it get us down!


We arrived at the garden at 2:00 and stayed until they closed.



I think this was my favorite... The Fountain of Muses by Carl Milles. Photos above and below.





While we strolled the gardens Danielle and I commented on how much my mother and father would have loved to visit there. I felt like my mother was there in spirit. Smiling down on us.

    So happy you had a good time, and shared some of the beauty with us as well. Glad the tire didn't deflate your spirits. (ug!)

    It looks like a great trip! I haven't been to Brookgreen gardens in years (30+), and don't remember it being quite so lovely. I'll have to plan on going again.
