A Scene in the Garden


We were finished visiting the Vanderbilt Mansion in Hyde Park and we took our time to sit on benches and look out over the Hudson river.  We had a very relaxing afternoon which was nice.  Then I happened to see a map I had picked up at the visitor center and I noticed that there was a large garden at the southern end of the property.  It was far enough away and with all the trees you wouldn't know it was there.  So we walked over to it and were amazed.  This was the first thing I saw and it stopped me in my tracks.  Pretty amazing, right?  Then we wandered around for another 45 minutes looking at all the brick architecture there.  This may just be the best photograph I have taken all year.

Gorgeous gardens and photo. The easy flow of the different flower beds are so calming.
