June 1, 2018: Our West garden is exploding with Spring color.聽 It is hard to believe it was planted just 4 1/2 months ago.聽 Things grow fast in Westport!聽 One of the interesting things landscape architect Gary Ratway has done here is to plant right in and between the stairs, leading to a beautiful overgrown look that we love.聽 We expect this garden to be fully grown in by early Fall.

Our 1904 organ plays again, and it sounds beautiful!聽 It now plays manually or electronically.聽 Spencer Brewer from Potter Valley, a genius with antique organs, fixed it for us! Check out harmonygaits.com for examples of his artistry!
