These beautiful gardens are in British Columbia and I'm sure you will recognize this scene. Jigsaw puzzles keep me occupied throughout Winter evenings!

K, I seem to recall your blog from your old account on these beautiful gardens. I hope you do visit them again and look forward to seeing your photos! Enjoy the jigsaw puzzles too ... :o)

Lovely looking jigsaw picture! Those gardens look fantastic!
I'm also doing jigsaws - but the virtual versions on the computer! No more lost pieces & no going through 100s of pieces trying to find all the outside pieces to make up the frame. With the touch of a button they all appear - like magic - at the top & bottom of the screen! Of course you still have to sort them & put them in but at least you know there are no missing pieces & nothing will fall on the floor nor will you ever have to worry about spilling your drink over them or getting crumbs in them!
I have been doing them for most of this year, probably since before lockdown Mk1 - now we are in lockdown Mk2 perhaps I will get even more done!

Balcony, I don't think 'virtual' jigsaw puzzling would suit me at all!
Sheila, that must have been a wonderful visit ... :o)

Hello Shirley, Thanks for posting.
These are Butchart's Gardens north of Victoria. Only few miles from our place as the crow flies. I know these gardens very well. We used to go there quite often but it got very popular with visitors from Asia and very crowded. I cannot handle crowds but we do go there in late spring to see their wonderful rose garden and in fall for dahlia display. I remember doing a blog in my previous account on these lovely gardens. It's gone now, but I might do one again next spring. It is a absolute must visit if you are in this area. The area in this picture is called "sunken garden" and is very picturesque year round.
I also mentioned these gardens in remarks in my blog "Fashions" recently.
I also love to do puzzles in winter Shirley. Good luck with it.
