is to raise more hell and fewer dahlias"

Garden Tour
By artist Nancy Colella
Norwell, Massachusetts
FELLOWSHIP
BUSINESS & PROJECTS
After a few mimosas, our President conducted a brief business meeting...and showed off our awards received at this year's Garden Club of South Carolina meeting
Full disclosure...said President is the Mother (aka Gladys and/or GG) of this author
Her parting gift to all of us as she leaves office...beautiful cookies made by the talented daughter of one of our members
CHAPEAUX
That member also happens to be last year's recipient of the Chapeau Award
Presenting the award to this year's best-dressed hat
FLOWERS
Equally well-dressed as the hats were the tables. Gathered from their yards and those of friends...the flowers were arranged by our hosts
GARDEN VIEWS
Our host's yard and garden, situated on a bluff over-looking Black Creek
EXPANDING HORIZONS

Well heck...no wonder you're so pretty!
(For some reason, you remind me of the actress Naomi Watts.)
Flowers are absolutely gorgeous against the crisp white tablecloths.
Thank you for sharing pictures from what looked like a lovely afternoon making memories.
Thanks Gail, GG will be so flattered! I am as well
I love EVERYTHING about this post. Looks like a fun time. What a lovely tradition. Have a great weekend!
your mother is the epitomy of southern!!!!!!!!!
Bless your little hear and your garden club. Love the parting words and your Mother is quite the rose.

to say I have a lot to learn from these ladies is an understatement...how to garden AND how to behave
