Way back in January of 2010 I posted a photo from the ruins garden at Chanticleer in Wayne, Pennsylvania, but I just found a few more and thought you all might like to revisit this gorgeous setting. This garden is magnetic. Every time I visit Chanticleer, I feel compelled to go straight to this area and just take it all in. The reflections are mesmerizing. Enjoy!
