Gardens Aglow at Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens

Last night the HH and I went and toured the Gardens Aglow at the Coastal Maine Botanical Gardensin Boothbay and it was pretty spectacular. 

There were over a mile of display gardens to walk through and it was so  much fun, we’re already looking forward to going next year. 

And, as an added bonus, there was even a stand selling hot chocolate and Holy Donuts. No leg lamps though. 😉

It was the perfect date night for a cold and windy December evening. 

Here’s a few pictures from last night.

Have a great weekend everyone,
