Zimar's Weekend Gardenhouse

Having a small house in the area where all the houses are big and made of concrete make my small garden house very unusual to passers-by.  During the construction of the house and even up to now, passers-by normally stop, sneak and try to satisfy their curiosities.  I even received visits from brokers asking permission to show my place to prospective buyers.  While others asked where I bought my stuff.  My favorite visitor is our Tagaytay neighbor, Doc. Jojo Maximiano,PHD who gave me a lot of encouragements.  He has an eye for beauty as evidence by his lovely house and intelligence as he injected tips. He is my regular visitor, whether I am in or not.  He will just go around and see what is new in my garden house.    He does bring his friends too to show the uniqueness of the house that offers the most privacy and natural site with the silence and the relaxing atmosphere from the beauty of the nature landscape.  

Having out on a weekend means, wake up early, pick up my garden tools, pack my picnic basket, invite my family/friends and off to go to my weekend garden house to relax and be free from the many entrapments of urban living.

Please come and have a tour with me.   Here are few pictures I piled up taken by different people who visited my place. I am thoroughly enjoying the excitement my garden house is bringing me.  Hope you too. 

Count your blessings.  Look around, appreciate what you have--your love ones, real friends, your home, the knowledge you have gained, good health and all the beautiful things of life.  Enjoy life while you can.

Welcome to my simple gardenhouse.  Above picture was taken by my good friend/classmate in elementary/High School, Ms. Glenda Manlapaz.  She loves taking pictures.

 

My gardenhouse at night.



This picture was taken by my brother in law, Egay Attendo, my sister Abna's husband.  His hobby is photography.  The birds bath was given to me by my daughter, Atty. Dana.  Showing off my boots, this was given to me by my nieces from Londoon, Jackie & Ness.  I love to wear this boots while gardening.

The jars shown here are 92 years old.  I bought this for a gave away price from Jun, the son of my good friend/classmate since elementary, Tessie Cereno, who is now in New Jersey with her nurse daughter.



This was taken early morning.  Can you see the fog?



Kudos to Goergianne Liad, my son-n-law's office mate, who photographed the beautiful photo below.  When I saw this picture, i couldn't resist not to pass on to my friends.
