Finishing Touch Design Club met Tuesday. We went to Buds and Blooms Nursery and Smith's Hydroponic Greenhouse in Brookhaven. Both places were a first for me although I've eaten Smith's tomatoes forever. The weather was wonderful--the coolest breeze--just perfect for toodling around in greenhouses looking at beautiful plants. 
Dana Case has her nursery "fixed up" in the cutest "rooms". You know how much I love YARD ART and this girl has it!! 
If you can't tell, this is an "outhouse" complete with potty!! How cute is that!! There were brick walkways and signs and birdhouses EVERYWHERE. I was using Delores' camera and the batteries ran down. I will never again go anywhere without MY camera!! After leaving there we went to Smith's Greenhouses where we saw huge and beautiful tomatoes and lettuce being grown hydroponicly (in water without dirt--for some of you who don't know that!!). I wanted to pick and eat right there. Another house had squash, cucumbers, and beautiful flowers. We all wanted to start growing things right away.
Lunch was calling--even though it wasn't The Old General Store as we had planned. Cracker Barrel welcomed us and after wonderful salads and much laughter and conversation, we left for home. A bit of a break in the usual routine--it was fun!
