I love <br />the thought of a train in the garden. I don't like the idea of the upkeep. This is the number one reason why I don't have one. I will have to keep having those interesting thoughts about them I guess until I win the lottery so I could hire someone to take care of it. :) Thanks for the warm pictures.Lisa at Greenbowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07743973292900758183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6239416285826090692.post-53000506201586245252018-01-06T13:05:34.242-05:002018-01-06T13:05:34.242-05:00After many visits to NY I have yet to visit this g...After many visits to NY I have yet to visit this garden.

The miniature historical buildings constructed out of natural elements are amazing. We have a great botanical garden near us in North Carolina. Hopefully, some day they can host a Paul Busse exhibition.

Birmingham, AL also once had a very special train station that was demolished in the 60s.
