Big Little Mission Garden

“I have been to the mission garden in Carmel many times and each time I have taken photographs. I almost didn’t go this time; I thought, ‘Why? The pictures always look the same.’ But after a chilly and foggy day, the sun came out and I was anxious to get outside with my camera. As I entered the mission gate I was greeted by colors I had never seen there before. The garden had been replanted as it was every spring, but on this bright April afternoon every plant and flower seemed to glow with exuberance and sing with unreal color. It was a timely reminder that there is something new and beautiful each day, even in this same old world.”
