As you can tell, the Bayou Bend Gardens are full of wonder. My camera was packed with photos when I finally left and continued my drive to Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

The interior of Ima Hoggs’ house is also beautiful.
Bayou Bend Gardens – Fountains
I guess it is not cool to zoom around the gardens and try to jump the fountains?
Bayou Bend Gardens – House Exterior
As you tour the Bayou Bend Gardens, you get a 360 view of the house of Ima Hogg and her brothers. If you are like me, you will soon fall in love with her back patio and its sweeping views of the gardens. In 1957, she deeded her estate and its collection to the Museum of Fine Arts in Houston.
Bayou Bend Gardens – Carla Garden
The Carla Garden was one of my favorites today at the Bayou Bend Collection and Gardens. There was something new everywhere you looked, and I could just imagine spending an afternoon there with tea and a good book to read.
Long Drive
I just drove a little over 435 miles! There were a few stops along the way, including the Bayou Bend Collection and Gardens in the River Oaks area of Houston.
