It was my second time visiting. The first was at the Easter Egg Hunt which was amazing. This time it was to deliver flowers. Before I even entered I was greeted by a very tastefully decorated for Fall. So much so, I took the attached photo! Certainly more than a couple of pumpkins and Hobby Lobby scarecrows sitting on a corner! Also this time I had an opportunity to talk with many of the staff including the General Manager and Sales Manager. It was utterly delightful! If I didn’t have places I needed to be I would have stayed a lot longer.
