Peaceful Green Oasis ....





SO!
I had a site visit down town and was headed back to work to put together the quote....
When I drove by this nursery and thought....
"You know,  I have driven by here a million times and I have heard so many people
talk about what a great nursery it is and it's not even 80 degrees out... 
you should stop. Oh! Dang! I just missed the turn....that's okay, go around the block" 

Yes, it really was a choppy, dot dot dot, run on thought. 
That is how I process and make decisions. 
So, I did go around the block, stop in, and thought I would share my little trip with you. 



Whitfill Nursery started right here in 1943 and has been family owned and 
operated ever since. 


This is such a pretty place in the middle of a residential area. 
The variety is amazing and all the staff is so helpful and knowledgeable. 


Supplies..... look at how thick that wall is. I think its real adobe.


An aviary with 2 HUGE parrots and lots of cockatoos.
Goats and chickens too.


A spot or two to sit and think or just enjoy the prettiness.


A vintage truck vignette.


824 E. Glendale Ave, Phoenix AZ
If your ever in the area, you should stop in.

A Little Home Town Pride!

Okay! I'm not trying to go all political on ya here! I Promise! This is really about me showing off and dropping a name here and there....
These 2 folks are John Shillington and Ruby Brown. John is our Music Minister (also the pastor who married my husband and I) and Ruby is a Soloist. Our Pastor, Dan Yeary also closed the RNC in prayer Thursday night. I get the joy and pleasure of listening to John every week. So it is no wonder that we are all so proud of both him and Ruby! They were invited by Cindy McCain, who is a member of our church. I hope you enjoy it.
