Description
My friend lived in Boulder, Colorado for many years, and her garden was always so beautiful. Eventually, she moved to Salida, Colorado, where things grow, but due to the altitude, very slowly. "I can't even grow a tulip up here" she lamented. She sent me a picture of the hammock that used to reside in their Boulder garden, complete with the spectacular San Juan mountain backdrop of their new, flowerless yard. I painted them the hammock and added in a garden. Sure enough, 10 years later, her green thumb has rendered her Salida garden just as lush as the garden she had to leave behind.

I can see myself laying in that hammock, soaking up the vibes. What a beautiful relaxing scene.
