Brookgreen Gardens Night of a Thousand Candles 12 '08

The Archer
This is our second year to attend Brookgreen Gardens' "Night of a Thousand Candles"
Becky, Jim, and Bruce
This year we were joined by our friends Jim and Becky Sullivan.
Palm Garden Pond by Day
 Every Year, hundreds of volunteers  string lights and light s tragically place thousands of  candles  throughout the the entire garden
Turning an already stunningly beautiful  area
into a fairyland of sparking dancing light
Same Palm Garden Pond by candlelight.
And here's a different view of the Palm Garden with the South Carolina State emblem ( Palmetto Palm and Moon)

Some of the displays are beautiful

And some are a bit spooky
Winter Bird house Display
Their indoor floral displays are especially interesting
I's love to decorate our Carolina room with one of these themes
Winter Cardinal Display
Or have a Christmas tree made entirely of Poinsettias

Jim, Becky and Bruce at the Concert
The Concert featuring pianist Rocky
was top notch
Even if you have visited Brookgreen Gardens in the past, this event is not to be missed.
