How great! I want to deviate this week! Instead of writing about flow ers, 1 beg for the privilege of sharing with you fellow garden ers my most enjoyable and rambling vacation trip with husband and daughter. Leaving after the last day of school, we started on the Blue Ridge Park Way at Asheville, and drove at “a slow speed and many stops” in order to enjoy the magnificence of the purple rhododendrons in North Caro lina, and the flame azalea so abundant, so gorgeously in bloom, all the way across Vir ginia into Roanoke. The colors were superb from palest yellow to vivid flame reds. Other flora was in bloom adding to the pure enchantment of the Parkway. We went from Roanoke into Washington, D. C. (We wanted our twelve year old to see all the historic and interesting sights of the big cities that we have seen many times in the past.) So, we toured wonderful Washington, Baltimore, Wilm ington. Delaware; Philadelphia; Trenton, N. J.; and New York City! The flowers in all these places, especially the roses, were breathtaking. After the crowds, the “jet speed of the turnpikes, the thru ways and expressways we were ready for a change, so we began a leisure tour thru the New England states, and oh, how de lightful! In Connecticut and Massa chusetts the flowers were mar velous, and again the roses were spectacular, as were the many lilac, here and all across the states of New Hampshire and Vermont. (We noted school still in session in northern Ver mont and Canada. Also apple trees, narcissi, tulips and iris in bloom). We thoroughly enjoyed the White Mountains of New Hamp shire and the Green Mountains of Vermont. We lingered awhile out of Burlington, Vt. on beautiful Lake Champlain before going on up to Montreal, Canada. With great excitement and enthusiasm we took in Expo ’67. Everyone should see it—it’s fantastic. I was so impressed with Montreal! It’s a masterpiece of beauty with its two million, six hundred thousand popula Final Notice!

Big lakes, little lakes, rivers! We were reluctant to leave Montreal! However, we took the unfor gettable Trans-Canada Auto route and journeyed through the Thousand Islands and Lawrence Islands section (beauty superb here) and many towns, across the province of Quebec into the province of Ontario and Toronto. ,From here we traveled on the fabulous Queen Elizabeth Way into Hamilton on Lake Ontario down into St. Catherines and the glorious town of Niagara Falls, Canada. This was a drive we’ll always remember! In fact, through Ver mont with white birch galore, always growing in clumps—they were magnetic in beauty! On across Canada, in western New York, and western Pennsylvania they grew, but more sparsely. The fragrant sweet rocket in several colors, grew wild through the countryside of these two states. Everywhere flowers were so lovely. The trees throughout Quebec and Ontario are God’s work of art, they’re that perfect! The grass and vegetation is “a study in green,” and “cleanliness” is the lasting impression I got of Canada. When I think of Expo ’67, I remember the mass of people pouring into every available place. It was over-whelming, as —Turn to Page EigU MICHAEL M.
