Last pictures of Ginter (3)

The property that Lewis Ginter Botanical garden is on was once Powhatan Indian hunting grounds. Patrick Henry owned it at one time also.
Lewis Ginter, a Richmond business man purchased nine acres in 1895.
Having colleagues in the Commonwealth and Westmoreland Clubs, he allowed to build the Lakeside Wheel Club. A destination for Richmond bicyclists.  It was taken from a one story structure and made into what is now the Bloemendaal House.

Some shots around the home.

Adalyn and Genevieve walking around the Japanese gardens

A gentleman showed Adalyn, Genevieve and Opa how to properly fold and make their rabbit?   I think that is what it is.  Very serious children I see here.  Opa must have messed his up.

Happy Wednesday
