Continuing with the 2025 Strathroy-Caradoc Horticultural Society’s 27th Annual Garden Tour, we move onto Garden #6. This garden has been created by my friends Linda and Bob Jackson at 343 Adelaide St., Strathroy. This truly is a labour of love for this couple.

Porte Ponderings:

It’s Friday the 13th. So locally all riders get their rides ready and go to Port Dover Ontario for a rally. 100,000 motorcyclists are expected. The Friday the 13th Port Dover Event is one of North America’s biggest gathering.

Too much on the same weekend. Today is also the start of Strathroy’s Hometown Festival with the Car Show tonight. So we’ll be staying home and walking downtown to see the cars. 😉
