It was a cold and eventually wet morning, but everyone was cheerful -- as Chemeketans always are. The houses, yards, and garden art in Fairmount are beautiful and varied, and we enjoyed them all. The owner of my favorite house in Salem was outside and invited us to tour her charming back garden -- really garden
s. Weather-proof walkers were Mark Ferguson, Frances Beranbaum, Diana Upton, Janet Adkins, Susan Oretsky, guest Susan Murray, and leader Elizabeth Seibert.
Wet, chilly and having fun in the Fairmount neighborhood.
