Garden getaways

Looking for a perfect spot to escape the urban landscape? You don't have to go far. These three gardens are well within driving distance of central Maryland and make great springtime or anytime getaways. Pack a picnic to take along and you're all set. The travel folks selected only three, but we know there are many more garden destinations in the mid-Atlantic. What's your favorite?

With regard to your recent article concerning the 50th anniversary luncheon of the Glen Arm Garden Club your writing captured what I believe is the essencial caring nature that touches each member and so many people beyond the membership.

Thank you. It was my pleasure.--Susan

About Susan Reimer

Susan Reimer has spent 16 years writing about raising kids - among other topics - in her column for The Baltimore Sun. And every time son Joseph or daughter Jessie passed another milestone - driver's license, college, wedding or a move to a new military duty station - she has planted another garden. Now she will be writing about those gardens - and yours - here on Garden Variety.

Susan isn't an expert gardener, but she wasn't an expert mother, either. Both - the kids and the gardens - seem to be doing well in spite of her.

She lives in Annapolis with her husband, Gary Mihoces, who loves to cut his grass but has noticed that there seems to be less of it every time the kids pass another milestone.
