Outdoor Wednesday

Today is Outdoor Wednesday over @ http://asoutherndaydreamer.blogspot.com/ and so I thought I would share with you my moms potting shed.

My parents live in one of the most beautiful peaceful places in the world. When life becomes "full" I ache to run away to this place. Of course it is where I grew up and my childhood was the greatest so why would it not be where I would choose to retrieve to?

My husband found this garage while working one day and the owner told him he could have it. So my husband and dad decided to turn it into a cabin. They moved it 50 miles and then we (we would actually be my parents:')) were lucky enough to purchase some land that had our old country school that had been turned into a cabin so moms dream of a potting shed came true.( You can read more about the cabin/country school at http://roxannephilben.blogspot.com/2008/12/our-home-away-from-home.html)
She is an awesome gardener and I will share more pics with you in time. She even has a little "setting room" inside as well.
Thanks for stopping by.
Blessings
Roxanne
P.S. Thanks mom for letting me share your garden:-))
