My new favorite hidden gem, Chanticleer

Chanticleer is a garden. It used to be some one's home and they turned the property into gardens open to the public so the land wouldn't go to developers. 

With sprawling lawns, amazing flowers and plants, incredible vignettes, and Adirondack chairs scattered all over, it's the kind of place you want to stroll around, bring a book and relax the day away.

We went on a Saturday afternoon when the weather was perfect and it really wasn't crowded. The kids loved it! They ran around, discovered "secret" paths, and played in the water feature. It's the kind of place that is fun for everyone!
I told Dave I want to go back for our anniversary next month, bring our Bibles and a picnic lunch, and just relax, read, stroll around and remember how crazy we are about each other.
