Garden Tour, Part 2

Wellness Loud
About this episode

Our story tonight is called Garden Tour, Part 2, but if you slept through part one, not to worry. Nothing Much Happened in it. This is a story about a day spent in tranquil, verdant spaces. It’s also about a grey cat in a window, iced tea and moonflowers, a view of the whole village from a rooftop, and the contagious calm of the outdoors.

We give to a different charity each week, and this week, we are giving to Old Friends Senior Dogs. They provide loving homes, good food, high-quality vet care, compassion, and comfort to senior dogs for the remainder of their lives.
