It was wonderful, sherry- (and thanks to all!) I even got a picture into the plant files of a white chestnut tree- or butternut tree- from the front of the cottage I stayed in. The caretaker was a helpful and informative, but very busy so even though I shanghaied him I had to give him back all too soon...
The little town was like something out of a old time movie, friendly, warm, gracious and upbeat...perfectly perfect for an old recluse gardener like me. No cell phones up in the canyon, peace and quiet! I dont venture out too much and when I do I expect the worst. This little artists town was, as Goldilocks said, "just right". Now all I have to do is win the BIG lottery so I could buy a small retreat to call my own...
Thanks for all the suggestions everyone. The image below is a photo of the entrance into the persimmon, pear and apple orchard where the wedding ceremony took place, it really felt magical...
