My impression of the area around the vacation rental house is that at some point there was a woman who loved this property, but she's no longer in the picture.
A forgotten garden:
This must have been a lovely little patio by the pool:
Little surprises are everywhere:
I wish I had the courage to eat some, they look delicious.
I'll leave you with a shot of the pool. Note VPH and younger step-son waging fierce battle:
Heather - it looks lovely! you are really making me want to take a vacation!

Hi, saw your comment on Gina's blog so came by to visit yours. That pool is in such a lovely natural setting...very nice.

I had to peak hard to see the "little surprises". What enchants me is the feeling of peace in that 'English cottage' look.
I feel quite nostalgic!

Gina, you know how torn I am about leaving my babies. I don't recommend it.
Connie, I checked out your blog -- those photos of hummingbirds are insane! Beautiful.
Mom, too bad your connection is so slow, otherwise you could click on the photos to enlarge.
