Weary of grim news from Ferguson to Gaza, Iraq to Ukraine, Ebola to the sad death of Robin Williams, my friend Mary and I sought refuge at Filoli today. The summer gardens were in full bloom, and in addition to feeling refreshed (if I repress the gridlock on my way home), I am practicing the photo gallery feature of Word Press. Enjoy!

What is your antidote to world weariness?
I would never have guessed there were so many flowers blooming at this time of year! thanks for the pictures – relaxing just to look at
Aren’t they incredible? My friend Mary had been there in early July, just when the summer annuals had been planted. She was astonished to see the difference. I think I will mass some zinnias in my garden next year.
