Thanks Donna, It was fantastic walking the grounds and enjoying the colors! I am sorry you didn't have in your area, here in a week is almost lost. The best foliage was two years ago, beeches were like golden trees. I can post some pictures, because I was not a that time blogging.

Carolyn, i will posting more on the garden , since I am documenting it through the seasons. I reserve the greenhouse for next months when there are less images to take outside, though the grasses will offer a spectacle in snow
