Day 5 - Past the Tiny Gardens

There were five of us today on a stroll through the neighborhood. Even when not walking far or fast, the addition of a stroller makes just a half-hour into a work-out!

So today we turned left on 3rd and right at Telfair to stop by some old pocket gardens. It was still very wet, so we didn't linger but kept a pretty steady pace. We saw the huge Gingko tree which was planted to commemorate George Washington's visit South and we later passed the parade grounds where he reviewed the troops of the Academy (later, my high school.) We managed the maze of a formal boxwood garden and listened to the fountain in nearby walled garden. We peered through the gate at the Old Medical College building and listened to the bells in nearby church steeples. It was a short walk with lots to see.

Lights were on in houses as we came back down the street. Neighbors were coming home, walking dogs and settling in for the night.
