Vail's Betty Ford Alpine Gardens

Despite recent wet weather, Vail is absolutely breathtaking right now. I spent some time this week at a couple of different sites where we often play, and thought I'd showcase a couple of them.

 

This is the wedding area of the Betty Ford Alpine Gardens. Wedding parties often descend the stone steps (upper left) or cross the footbridge (to the center right), while their guests are seated on the patio. Surrounded by the fragrant garden flowers, we generally sit off to the far right, and along with trilling birds and the gently cascading waterfall, we whisk our clients and guests off to an enchanted, idyllic fairyland.

Following are additional garden photos
