Lush Green Gardens

By Tessa Dean October 2022

“Come here, Leo,” Robert called to his dog.”Come this way, and let’s see what’s down this path.” The dog turned to follow him, and they headed down the wooded path. The dog had to stop and sniff almost every tree or bush continually. They eventually came to a brick wall. They followed it around until they came to an opening and looked in. A beautiful view of a garden led up to the mountains in the distance. He didn’t go all the way in this time. 

Robert and Leo rested, scoping out the area he could clearly see, and decided that he and his wife Lisa would explore the gardens the next time they walked the dog together. He decided on their next hike together that they would bring a picnic and then explore as far as Lisa could walk. She wasn’t in great shape like Robert, who took long walks with the dog and got plenty of exercise every day.

Lisa agreed to the picnic and then a hike through the gardens. The day they headed out, it was warm and sunny, and Lisa was enchanted with the garden. They found a lush green spot, spread the blanket, and set out the picnic. They spent a pleasant afternoon exploring the park and the mountains that were closest to them.
