Garden Writers Symposium in Indianapolis Aug 24th-August 30th 2011

 After a gruelling 18 hour bus trip I arrived in Indianapolis on time for my pre- symposium writing workshop a little worse for wear in a chilly air conditioned hotel. Through the windows of the Hyatt Regency I could see the Indiana state capitol building( see photo above) Telling stories of the Garden: the Power of the Narrative was the topic of the workshop.I wanted to get out in the beautiful weather so I decided to do some exploring.This beautiful park (see below) was across the street from my hotel with its new plantings,splashing fountains,and shady vine covered trellises. I ran into hilda morill
