A Visit to Riverside

1) the garden at Riverside


I was fortunate to spend 3 days in London over the weekend to visit with my folks and sister and enjoy the garden at Riverside.  Papa is the ultimate Englishman and has a beautiful garden.

This visit saw me trying the new bed as well. Back in March, we had a flood at Riverside (yuck!) whilst the family was in Florida (of course). The flood essentially nuked the bedroom G and I use when we visit. The renovations are done now and we have a lovely berber carpet and a gorgeous pillow-top bed (that reaches almost up to my waist it’s that high) with 800-count sheets. Lovely!

    I remember your other postings of your parent’s garden and it has always stayed in my mind. Your grandmother exercises more than I do.
