A tornado ripped through the gardens in 1992, but they made lemonade from lemons, and used the open spaces created by the downed trees to plant flower gardens, whereas before it had been primarily trees, shrubs and bushes. They also lost 10 acres when the state took it for the interstate, but were able to obtain certain concessions which created the lakes. Even so, the noise from the freeway is ever present.

lovely flower gardens. Nice break from the political things.
Yes, some people spend months of their lives on the campaign trail seeking votes for their candidate; some of us just blog about it. But we can all enjoy nature.
