Spring is such a great whoosh of a season, isn’t it? A spring weekend really needs to be four days to accommodate all the incredible stuff there is to do. Let’s get those bright minds in Congress on that right away. Here in Southern California, tomorrow, May 5, is the Venice Garden and Home Tour,<\/a> which overlaps the Jane Jacobs Walks<\/a> that are taking place in cities across the globe. The “What Would Jane Do” walk for Los Angeles<\/a> will take place in the Silver Lake neighborhood and includes former homes of Richard Neutra and Anais Nin. (Raise your hand if you read the entire collection of Nin’s diaries in your late teens\/early twenties.) You can see if there’s a walk taking place in your city here<\/a>. The Mary Lou Heard Memorial Garden Tour<\/a> also takes place this weekend, and guess who’s on the tour Sunday? Some clues: He’s on my blogroll and is a garden designer and master of the non-sequitur who will be opening his garden Sunday to the curious hordes, of which I am and always will be one. Addresses on the self-guided tour for both days can be found here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

And without any context, just some odds and ends from recent garden tours.<\/p>\n
