BACKYARD:
- You have access to the "Secret Garden" at the top of the property (signs will guide you). This is a tiered garden that my parents created before "green" was even thought of. They reused materials from the house and also tires to create walls, paths and special places for sitting peacefully or meditating or just reading. You will not be able to tell you are in a small town but feel like you are in a forest.
