THE GARDENS AT THE ABBEY ARE A TRANQUIL PLACE TO VISIT. CHECK THEIR SITE TO SEE WHEN HOURS ARE FOR VISITS--THERE IS A GIFT SHOP AS WELL.

What a wonderful place to be able to visit and stroll around. I imagine it would make for a really relaxing day.
ReplyDeleteThe carvings are quite remarkable, a creative way to deal with downed trees.

This looks like an amazing place! The twisted tree trunk is so stunning. The Nativity from the trunks is so beautiful. What a great place to visit.
ReplyDeleteThanks for popping in to see me and Happy New Year.

What a serene yet majestic place. Thank you for posting these pictures!
ReplyDeleteThose are beautiful gardens, what a brilliant idea, to make carvings out of the torn up trees. If ever I'm in SC, I would want to visit that place
