Did you ever read the book The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett? I imagine it might look like the above photograph of the garden at Campovida in Hopland. We went there this morning to attend their “Enchanted Garden” activity for kids. There was a misprint of the time of the event, so we arrived an hour late.  It turned out all right though because our friends arrived late, too which meant we were able to meander through the gardens on our own without a crowd. We had perfect fall weather–it was cool and we had a light rain falling on us with bursts of sun every now and then. We picked a few grapes off the vine and had a raisin or two. Zoey was wearing her “butterfly fairy” costume. She forgot her magic wand at home, but thankfully wasn’t too upset about leaving it behind.

Today is Day 25 of the Write 31 Days series. Other posts in the series can be found here.
