How long do you expect to live? I love Chinese gardens (and always spend time in the one at the Montreal Botanical Gardens when I'm there. Thanks for sharing your visit with us. (My first thought was "Portland has a Chinese Garden? Where??" -- but then I realized that you were in the other Portland. :-) ) -JeanAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5697737974013665829.post-72841416795987174202016-06-30T06:33:44.532-07:002016-06-30T06:33:44.532-07:00Still reading you Chad! The stonework is amazing,...Still reading you Chad! The stonework is amazing, I have a rough idea how long it would take to create those designs and it's mind-boggling. Here in frost-heaving country, it wouldn't be practical for us, but for you, it would be amazing. The simplicity and yet complexity of the garden is such a delicate balance. Bonsai always fascinates me too, I wish I had the skill and patience. Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18368318730124533690noreply@blogger.com
