How To Say I Do In Spanish Wedding

Secrets For you

Monday at 19:20. We had seen 142 of the 143 gardens participating in the "A Garden for Valparaiso." Only one was missing, that of Abdul Osvaldo Nieto, population Villa Esmeralda Block H, Mount Butterflies.

At this point, we had qualified gardens stairs, passageways, plazas, vacant lots, floes, ceilings, walls, and under lifts. Had been made with tire gardens, roses guarded by gnomes and planters built with recycled waste. We visited a park run by a real grandpa crutches and a lookout transformed into a paradise for children with Down Syndrome and other special needs. We discovered two gardens with tubs and one where the birds splashing in a pool become old sink.

So I will not lie: on Monday, more than one juror thought the 143 would be a salute to the flag. What else can we do? What could be there, "at the top of the hill"?

We tried to visit the garden of Don Osvaldo twice. From Avenida Germany tried to get by Gallardo and Pedro de Ona. But every time we missed. When Miss Street store Alberti said "I have no idea," he surrender.

But this time we were prepared. We had talked with Don Osvaldo and gave us the following instructions: "Go up Chilquinta substation to the top of the hill. When you reach the fork take the left. When you see the passage A Crude rises until the end the pavement. " We

until the end of the pavement. We arrived to the last house on the hill Butterflies. "Where is the garden?"

"After the last house on the right" told us about children. There we found a fence, of great extent, built on the broken boards. There was a rustic gateway with a handwritten sign, "The Sanctuary House, A Garden for Valparaiso." Passed. Two jurors, Hector Correa and Juan Pablo Alvarez, said: "I can not believe." We started down a path, handmade by Osvaldo, who zigzagged by pines and eucalyptus, to the depth of the gorge. Along the way, there were small breaks, viewpoints, a variety of floral arrangements, and even a mini soccer field for the little children of the neighborhood.

Then the hard facts: We went from 78 to 143 gardens. Tripled the gardens in public spaces. Quintupled the participation of schools and kindergartens. We managed to give 39 awards, including several that we had to invent the last minute to cover all special cases, such as Osvaldo, who went beyond the original parameters of the competition.

My daughter asks, "Dad, you'll do another column about gardens? Long ago not write about me. " "It is these gardens are for you, my love. To you and all the little children of Valparaiso. Straight From the 'El Membrillo' to the top of the hill. "
