Yesterday Dottie and Linda drove Ted and I around Knoxville. We spent a little time on the Dogwood Trail looking at beautiful old and new homes with gorgeous spring flowers particularly the Dogwoods.
Then they took us to the huge Baxter home to see their gardens. They open up the gardens during the Dogwood Arts Festival and allow people to roam them. They have six different garden areas with water features and ponds that can be viewed. They also have a maze and gazebos! It is really pretty.
From there we took a Starbucks coffee break (only to allow our eyes to rest from all the beauty of course)! We then drove over to the University of Tennesse where they have a horticulture program. Their flower show isn't for a few weeks so it was not really ready for viewing but we still found some beautiful flowers!
Beautiful gardens..."Ain't Life Grand!"
