The Catherine Violet Hubbard Animal Sanctuary: "The sanctuary honors the memory of six-year-old Catherine, a kind and compassionate animal lover who lost her life at Sandy Hook Elementary on December 14th 2012. To continue her crusade of compassion, the CVH Animal Sanctuary is being created in Newtown, CT – a place where all creatures will know they are safe and people are kind."

I donated to the Sanctuary Annie posted about when they were raising funds.

This gazebo came to mind

We built two pavilions this summer:

Gazebo @ Saratoga Race Course

Our pergola is closest thing to gazebo.

My covered deck....as we were working on it....

Inspired by the focus on architecture, and by the white colour in nhbaskets' photo:

Inspired by the pattern in Toronto vet’s pic.

Old greenhouse in Valley Forge Park, inspired by the pergolas

Bricks and shelter plus flowers are echoed here in daughter's picnic shelter scene.

Brick fireplace in my dining room.

Fireplace mantal decorated for Fall (about 3 years ago, I think)
