		<description><![CDATA[The Skagit Symphony Orchesta&#8217;s annual fundraising garden tour, Gardens of Note, was held last weekend. This is the second year I&#8217;ve headed down to our neighboring county to check out some wonderful gardens and I wasn&#8217;t disapointed. Here&#8217;s a condensed visit to the gardens.


All of the gardens on this year&#8217;s tour were on Samish Island, [...]]]></description>

They&#8217;re all different and worth a visit if you&#8217;re in the area and interested in gardening.

The Painted Hills in the John Day Fossil Beds National Monument in north-central Oregon are an out-of-this-world landscape. Layers of colorful bentonite, formed from ancient volcanic ash, change color with the light and moisture content. Each spring they pick up golden highlights from two endemic plants.

Ron has the most incredible cactus garden you&#8217;ll find just about anywhere. He&#8217;s been growing cactus, which are native only to the [...]]]></description>
