Thank you for both the garden tour and the links. Maybe living in such a wonderful environment is what made the 87-year old gardener stay vibrant.

It would be wonderful if we in Austin would get enough rain to flow down a chain.

Thanks for sharing your visit. Your lovely photos look so cool and inviting. I wish I could jump in one right now.

I’ve never heard of Arthur Erickson, but the use of a rain chain is common in Japan. This design seems very influenced by Japanese gardens.

So cool. Thanks for ‘taking us with you’. I think that Canadian House and Home featured this property on one of their shows :)
