Longwood Gardens

 I think right now would be considered an off season at Longwood Gardens, maybe more between seasons.

The mums and pumpkins have not yet found their way out to the gardens.

Still there is plenty of color in the gardens and more than 200 park like acres to explore.

We don't usually appreciate the trees and greenery as much as we did today,

the park like atmosphere is like nothing I have ever seen.

The trees are huge and we spent a lot of time guessing how old we thought they were.

This is 1 of the 3 treehouses in Longwood Gardens.

This is the Lookout House, the only one of the three on the main path.

The Italian Water Gardens

There are only a few fountains in this garden.

The Main Fountain Garden 

There is a lot of interesting information about these fountains that can be found here.

This fountain is located in the center of the gardens.

This floor is covered with water...

these last four pictures are showing the water elements in the gardens.

Tomorrow, 

I will show you some more colorful pictures of the gardens.
