Displays of gladioli and dahlias signify summer's last blast of colour and variety in the garden. These flowers grace the Love farmhouse at Burnaby Village Museum
which celebrates its 40th anniversary this year.
Alongside heritage buildings and gardens are the BC Electric Railway exhibit and the CW Parker Carousel both of which are a century old.
These former glories of technology are highly evolved and therefore beautiful and rare.
