Home and Garden Walk

This Saturday, Chucky allowed me to leave home after taking photos him in the sunshine. I attended a Home and Garden Walk in historic Palmer Woods, Detroit Michigan, with friend BG.  I did NOT see any cats, but that was because they were safely behind closed doors. We visited about fifteen different homes.  Thought you might enjoy some of my photos:

I like the way Chuck's black fur is different colors!


Such a luscious garden!

Home designed and built by Frank Lloyd Wright

Wonderful pond at the
Frank Lloyd Wright home

Metal sculptures of goats


This particular home had two beehives in the garden


If you bigify, you'll see toy cars and trucks at
the top of each metal circle
This was in someone's front yard


Fountain and garden


It took a lot for me to keep from jumping in this fountain!

Funky birdhouses


This is a master-bedroom shower,
big enough for a few people, methinks!
Had a lovely time, and now I want a fountain in my backyard too!  I'll leave the beehives to someone else.

  3. Wow, about the fountains and I love koi ponds. Chuck is displaying lovely shades from melatonin. It's unique to black cats.

  6. Lots of great landscaping. Many years ago I toured a Frank Lloyd Wright home in Wisconsin. I don't remember what it was called, but it was very interesting.

  13. looks like a lovely walk! I wouldn't want to do that because I would see homes that I would lust after and they just might find me hiding out somewhere inside of their house MOL MOL MOL!! catchatwithcarenandcody
