The Two RV Gypsies: Full-Time RVers decided to have fun and play in the Children's Garden, one of Karen Duquette's favorite places in gardens. (Some people just do not want to grow up). On this date, they had the area all to themselves,

This is a big, beautiful, wonderful area, and the two RV Gypsies took so many pictures that the gardens had to be divided up into sections which will allow photos to load faster, and give viewers the opportunity to view areas in any order they choose.
