A Little Bit of Heaven by allie912

A Little Bit of Heaven

My condo pool is the best kept secret in Richmond. Not just because it is never crowded but because it is an urban oasis. All because of Bernard, a resident originally from South Africa,pictured on left, who cares for the grounds as an act of love. Using no chemicals, he cultivates lush flowers and bushes all around the pool. He has placed little bird baths all along the brick wall to entice birds who come and lend their songs. This tranquil spot is a respite from summer heat and daily chores. It is a testament to one man's passion.
This is a really special collage -- I love all the flowers and the other little photos of interest spots along the path or pool.
This is a wonderful testament to the difference that ONE PERSON
can make. Please give Bernard my compliments and a big thank-you for caring. And a big thank-you to you as well for sharing this pool and Bernard's story with us.

Thank you for your encouraging comment. It really does illustrate the difference one individual can make. I am printing a copy of the collage for Bernard because he does not have email. (and why does that not surprise me?)
