Trip Report to Cornell Plantations, Ithaca, NY-Pix Fixed!

[Reinbeau]

My mother and I went to The Annual Gathering of the Northeast District, Herb Society of America, August 7-9, 2009 at Cornell University. It was a wonderful trip, the gardens at Cornell are amazing. The highlight of the gardens, at least for us, is the Robison York State Herb Garden. I've included a few photos from the visit, if you want to see more, you can view the whole garden I've got posted on my Facebook page, you don't have to be a member to view them.

First is an overall view of the gardens and some of our members:

Next is the Yarb Woman, she's a statue given to the garden by the Aucana Herbarists, a local herb gardening group. Mom and I both want her in our gardens!

The rest are just some colorful shots I thought you'd enjoy:

The pictures aren't showing up!

Hmmm, I can see them. Anyone else?

They're not showing up for me either. Using IE and right clicking and selecting "show picture" doesn't work either.

I can see them in Mozilla Firefox. Nice!

Rosalind, you were probably the only one who would see them - I found the problem and fixed it! Too many ///'s.

All set now! I hope you enjoy them

That looks really great. I was there many years ago, before I really got into gardening. I can see I better schedule a pilgrimage for next year! Thanks for sharing and reminding of such a beautiful spot!

These beautiful gardens are great for inspiration, but really, what we've got is wonderful, because it's ours, our own interpretation of what a garden should be. I've seen so many...but this is what I come home to
