Monet's Garden



My first memory of a garden is when we use to visit Mississippi before we lived there. My uncle Wallace managed his own garden growing a large variety of things. I can remember going down there early in the morning with my dad to pick peas before it got too hot outside.

Monet's house/garden felt to perfect. When things become tourist attractions their original state is always altered to accommodate large groups of people. The site was incredibly beautiful but because of alterations to me it felt unnatural in many ways.
