I enjoyed re-visiting the Gardens of Colonial Williamsburg featured on Notes from Juniper Hill. It has been a good few years since I had the pleasure of attending a garden symposium there, and I am pleased to hear that Laura Viancour still oversees the garden programming. As you may know, John D. Rockefeller Jr. endowed both Colonial Williamsburg, which opened to the public in 1934, and The Cloisters, which opened in 1938. Dear Joe,
