 The Governor's Garden at Château Ramezay is like a little oasis in the middle of Old Montreal. This past October we enjoyed one of our many strolls through this peaceful haven but this time to view the squash display.  To my delight there was also a small floral photo exhibit at the entrance to the garden. I thought posting some of the floral photos was the perfect "food for the soul "on such a bleak and cold day in Montreal. Regardless of the weather in your neck of the woods, I hope you also enjoy the photos. To all my friends south of the border, I would like to wish you all a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday weekend. 

Smiling guardians of the pumpkin patch...... trying to keep warm while welcoming visitors and answering questions

Our very own Montreal Melon.....who would have thought?



Some of the photos on exhibit at the entrance to the gardens .......
 helping to recapture summer for at least a few moments.

 Snow on the flowers.......... but too beautiful not to include in my ode to summer

    Thanks to both of you for taking the time to leave you lovely comments.
    It is a charming garden in the middle of an otherwise bustling tourist area, where you can sit and gather your thoughts. These young ladies managed to keep their smiles in spite of the weather.
