Being in the midst of a serious drought here in the southwest
it is easy to start thinking of water.
And the place I think of when I think of water
is the Glen Burnie Gardens in Winchester, Virginia.
These beautiful gardens are situated around a series of springs
that provided fresh water to the house
of Glen Burnie and also the original town of Winchester.
Before they were given to the town of Winchester,
they were lovingly restored by Julian Glass and Lee Taylor
from the 1950s to the 1990s.
This is the third post I have done on Glen Burnie:
Glen Burnie Gardens, and Bridges.
With so much water it is easy to find ideas
for designing a water feature.
Not only is there a lot of water here,
there is also a lot of limestone.
If you ever have the chance to stop by I recommend a visit.
Winchester is in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia right off of Interstate 81
and about two hours due west of Washington, D.C on US 50.

on the right sidebar for Water Features.
