Good Fences ~ Edition 68 ~

The Hershey Gardens























  It was a cloudy day, not great for pictures but an awesome day for me,
as I have a zero tolerance for the heat and sun!!

Sharing these images taken on July 5th in Hersey, Pa. with 
for Good Fences
Stop by and consider joining in the fun, any fence or gate will do!

The Hershey Gardens are stunning, such beautiful roses, Thanks for the virtual tour.

On the contrary. Gray days make a great foil for the colors.

The gardens are just as I remember from when Ray and I made an impromptu drive there on a day the gardens were closed. No matter. We just hopped the (good) fence and had the gardens all to ourselves. (Hangs head in shame. But remembers day fondly.)

:) m & jb who is shocked to hear mommy and daddy cats could get away with stuff they would never let HER do!

Wow what stunning grounds here at this garden. When I hear the word Hershey I think of chocolate not flower gardens but man is this every sweet in it's own way. Gorgeous grounds with wonderful fences and some beautiful flowers and fountains (did you wade in any of them?).

How beautiful! Gorgeous flowers and plants! That's a great butterfly chair! Overcast days are actually good...better than taking photos in midday sun. You don't get harsh shadows or washed out colors.
