A wonderful 2.5 acre garden worth visiting in Palo Alto, CA is The Gamble historic Garden. A free, self guided tour takes about an hour and there are benches and many places to sit and enjoy the day if you have the time. You can also head inside the Gamble house, we found a nice little horticulture library within.
Remembering a Favorite Historic Garden
Ever have a moment where an interesting event triggers a fun memory? I had one this morning, and it really make me want to travel… I’ll tell you why. The interesting event came about when reading an article in the Philadelphia Archaeological Forum about a recent discovery of a 1760’s garden bell jar excavated during an archaeological dig in Philadelphia.
