Gardens, Fountains, and Sculptures - pics from your rides.

[Art Deco]

I'll start with our front garden, but city dwellers will ride past much nicer gardens than I do. How about posting a few pics if you can?

Social distanced garden party by the river, behind a 200 yr old tavern. I drove, but it's close enough to bike. And they do have nice gardens.

So I changed the name of the thread to include sculptures and fountains because the first two responses were actually sculptures not gardens. And it's much easier to change a title than keep an EBR thread on topic. But the hope is that people will post something "artsy" that they like to ride by.

In the spirit of bowing to the inevitable, this little guy is a crosspost from the wierd & eyecatching pics thread.The best rust bucket(metal) sculpture. A memorial to a local drummer in his brothers front yard. The story is that the drummer was the inspiration for Jim Hanson's Amimal character. All made from scrap ... the cymbals are hubcaps , the drums are chip tins, the hair is electric wire, etc.

Not much gardening for me this year. My bulbs came out in April, but I stayed away from the crowds in the garden centers this Spring.

One of our local gardens has tons of flowers and fountains.
Found some neon pink blossoms that match my Pimped-Out-In-Pink Vado.

Looks awesome. I checked out their website. Live music tomorrow nite with band playing Tom Petty and The Band. Right up my sweet spot! No Music in our county, barely outside dining and who wants to dine outside when it's 116?
