The Yerba Buena Gardens are located in San Francisco, California. Basically, it's two blocks of public parks in downtown San Francisco. It provides over 100,000 square feet of green space for the residents. There's grass, gardens, streams, and fountains, and even a 100 year old carousel (built in 1906) that children can enjoy. Children can also find a playground, a labyrinth made of hedges, and an area where they can alter the flow of the streams to create dams or irrigate the gardens.
The park is open daily from dawn to dusk. The Carousel is open daily from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM. The cost for two rides on the carousel is $3.00.
I'm going to begin posting the IWSG questions of the month here instead of on my Mama Diaries Blog. For those of you who don't know, I lost my son in a motorcycle accident on February 2nd. I've decided to leave my Mama Diaries blog as a tribute to him since there are many stories from his childhood there.
The question of the month is if you could be someone else for a while, who would you be and why. Actually, even with all the pain and sadness I've been through, I wouldn't want to be anyone else. I'm perfectly happy as myself.
Gardening Tip: To get rid of fruit flies on houseplants, pour apple cider vinegar into a container, cover with plastic wrap, and poke holes in the top. The flies will go in and not come out.
