Bear Run, Southwestern Pennsylvania, May 17, 2014: Members and guests of District I day tripped to <a href="http://www.fallingwater.org/" target="_blank">Fallingwater</a>, the weekend home designed by Frank Lloyd Wright for the owners of Kaufman's Department Store of Pittsburgh, PA. Fallingwater was one of three projects that re-energized the career of the then 67-year-old architect Wright. Fallingwater is perhaps his best known work.</div>

The event proved to be a very special evening of laughs, heartfelt hugs, and memories. The memorabilia table set by President Christine Hambach had some correspondence and notes both to and from several of those who could not attend. A silent, continuous, 17-minute, big-screen slide show provided quick glimpses through five decades of club activities and accomplishments. </div>

I was so thrilled to be included!<br /><br />The program given by Landscape Designer, <a href="http://www.blogger.com/www.cherylcorson.com">Cheryl Corson</a> on Rain Gardens was extremely informative and she was a very energetic and fun speaker. She highly recommended the publication <i><a href="http://www.hgic.umd.edu/content/documents/Rain_Gardens_Across_MD.pdf">Rain Gardens Across Maryland</a></i>! She also suggested a <a href="http://www.blogger.com/www.butterfliesandmoths.org">website</a> to help determine which plants to include in a garden for attracting butterflies - remember they need plant hosts for the eggs as well as a food source and animals prefer multiples of the same plants! </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;">As a even bigger bonus, the Tanta-Cove Garden Club held a Flower Show as well in different rooms of the hostess' house. The designs and horticulture were really inspiring! Here are just a few pictures of the many exhibits.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJpEe1Xg9q6F5L5Wbdiz9MJPSTXkKhwPnDW3CARhb_tCk_618evTa0sK7r8grd-q0qjNI8iRHOqagw4SGBNrSxnqhxtxDZPvrmAjTIwQ4dc5X-Em4X6sYphNW-OwJiBmyoxSd2_aaUPBRA/s1600/0201121213a.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 150px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJpEe1Xg9q6F5L5Wbdiz9MJPSTXkKhwPnDW3CARhb_tCk_618evTa0sK7r8grd-q0qjNI8iRHOqagw4SGBNrSxnqhxtxDZPvrmAjTIwQ4dc5X-Em4X6sYphNW-OwJiBmyoxSd2_aaUPBRA/s200/0201121213a.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5706923080883153938" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZzLO5lGA4mUu47Is4W6ZSX-niE3rPapLSdNp6MqoOzvaVpvm14-LHUgRqPnwe3hIfp-z1jVg9WPIfRiN9OUm5euppWIfG2fWWDhe5U_iHmFlDjMiVyB_LsqW34qu7-2S1z0UgMFctfXtI/s1600/0201121213.jpg"><img style="float: left; margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; cursor: pointer; width: 213px; height: 159px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZzLO5lGA4mUu47Is4W6ZSX-niE3rPapLSdNp6MqoOzvaVpvm14-LHUgRqPnwe3hIfp-z1jVg9WPIfRiN9OUm5euppWIfG2fWWDhe5U_iHmFlDjMiVyB_LsqW34qu7-2S1z0UgMFctfXtI/s200/0201121213.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5706923441204166994" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgt_T-YfIUbqCwxS55zq5QFRXsTUOdF8eIVJQ7crJ88JBKsvUFcIv2tR_FI6HhGE0s0EZMgC0xqXE-TtCOGJHgWIjMiTUgKXBWf-VjNW-pyD0U7ucYm6BDgD-flDEzOOczhqmRcfV-upXU8/s1600/0201121209.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgt_T-YfIUbqCwxS55zq5QFRXsTUOdF8eIVJQ7crJ88JBKsvUFcIv2tR_FI6HhGE0s0EZMgC0xqXE-TtCOGJHgWIjMiTUgKXBWf-VjNW-pyD0U7ucYm6BDgD-flDEzOOczhqmRcfV-upXU8/s400/0201121209.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5706923807103578370" border="0" /></a>--Danielle Brabazon, District Director<br /><br /></div>District 1 Directorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09585674812919156500noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1119559867097159405.post-9933467595002088802011-12-23T08:43:00.017-05:002011-12-23T14:40:57.099-05:00Our Olde Dominion Holiday<div style="text-align: justify;">December 3, 2011: Forty-five District I members and guests took a holiday tour of Virginia.
