There is a Garden Tours thread that focuses on pictures of people's gardens or gardens they have visited. I thought perhaps here in our fun Garden Art Forum someone may have an occasional Yard and Garden Art Tour they'd like to share.

This is a yard and gardens here in Middle Tennessee that I visited just this morning. I hope you enjoy the tour as much as I did.

Thanks Tee....what a great idea for a thread here. I especially loved the bird bath and the little boy fishing.

Beautiful gardens Tee. I love the bridge and the little boy fishing. The bike is fantastic too. I want one of those.

This is already posted in Texas Gardening, but you might want to sneak a peek. Some are outrageous, others are artistic, and some are just junk!

Tee,
Now THAT is the way to have flamingos!

I want the woman watering? by the tree! That's neat!

I love the boy and bridge too. It's a perfect scene!

Sandi,
Austin, does have some ''unique'' places.

Tee,
Grinning. I have to admit that Sandi's tour almost made me sick, LOL! Those doll heads. Too freaky!! I'm glad to know what they were doing instead of watching TV, LOL, but, to each his own.
