************************************************

Its finally fall here!!
We've had so much wind recently that all my  leaves are
gone off my trees before they even got a chance to change color.

Been up to my neck in everything!!

Below is what my amazing husband/partner has done
for Millstone...

I LOVE IT!!!!
It has been decorated with more wonderful prim goods
I feel so at home in that little room...
very hard to leave it.

~~~YEARNING FOR~~~


*****************
FALL
The last couple of days in Central VA.
have awaken the desires for fall.

I love the color of the sky...
crunchy leaves
cool breezes
hint of smoke
crispy walks
PUMPKINS
+++++++




Who can't love those colors?
Where we are in our little town of Monroe
there are about half dozen orchards!!
One of them happens to be located just down the 
road from us...
crisp fresh apples
tart and sweet
dripping with goodness...
gourds...
ready for my decorating desires
Oh My...
hurry up!!



Our next show is the Gathering in
Knoxville, TN.
I am sure that there will be plenty of fall
decorating at that show
to fill my heart!!

Enjoy your cooler temps...
have a blessed tomorrow.

We have been so busy getting ready for all of our up coming shows
that time has really slipped up on me.
Just had Lee's family reunion over the weekend...
lets just say when it rains it pours!!! and not just rain drops!

The mister has to have hip replacement...yeah
and he is not moving as fast as he once was...
But he is being a trooper and trying very hard to 
work through the pain. I thinks he is going to 
try for the first of the year...maybe by then the doctor
will do it.

Friends...my buzzer just went off...that means various body
parts are dry now.

Make it a good one!
