I like the idea of a sanctuary garden area - walled off to provide a 
peaceful spot, but not completely roofed over. A sunshade, or lean-to 
over part of the area for weather protection, certainly, but open air 
for part of it. The gardeners in Artemisia - of whom there seem to be 
plenty! - could provide the information (and maybe the plants) for a 
suitable area of reflection. There are literally dozens of types of 
Artemisia that grow in our area - just ask Alethia, here in Bronzehelm, 
who has over a dozen varieties in her garden - as a thought for what 
would grow well with minimum tending.

The idea of a book of remembrance, also, appeals to me greatly.
