Aren't these dahlias amazing? These were grown by none other than Virginia Miller. Lon and I had the great pleasure of visiting Ken and Virginia in their home and shop in the mountains. A delightful stop on our mini tour of NC.
The John C. Campbell Folk School was a memorable show for us. We look forward to our return more than we can say next October. Thanks to all who hosted us and attended the performance.
