My computer is still acting up...that blue screen keeps showing it’s ugly face!
I packed my camera bag, stopped at Sonic for
a large mocha java chiller,
and headed for Martin Lake.
There were no boats and no people!!
Perfect day!!
I took this at home, he was barely hanging on.
This is an old cemetery on the way to the lake.
I love the colors.
As close as I got to this heron.
I had to sneak up on him, hiding behind trees so I could get this shot.
Dang bird!!
A very relaxing day…:)
My computer has been in the SHOP for a MONTH!!
I am so happy to have it back!!
Now I can share the photos I took at the open house
for Not So Shabby , owned by Jena Williams.
It was held at P&C Celebration in
Henderson, Texas.
If you are looking for that special gift
for someone,
this is THE place to go!
Jena also does Plantation Shutters!!
Contact her here at Not So Shabby.
I’ll post more photos later…I have a date
with a six year old
to decorate a gingerbread house!
Fall is wonderful!!! I didn’t think it would ever get here!
Today is warm and humid and the colors of the trees are amazing!
There’s a cold front supposed to hit tomorrow so we better enjoy
the warmth while we have it!!
Here’s a few pics that I took a couple of days ago.
This is a swamp maple which is pretty common around
wet areas.
This is a Black Gum tree.
They are usually the first ones to turn colors in the fall.
It’s really hard to capture the beauty of the fall colors...:/
I have always loved this old house. It is now up for sale and it’s
only $240,000! I think it includes 41 acres with 12 acres being
hiway frontage which makes it pretty expensive.
It’s also in the city limits.
I am afraid whoever buys it will tear the house down because it doesn’t
look restorable to me.
I couldn’t get close because there was a nasty sign on the gate
so I ran back home and got the long lens...:)
I would have loved to have peeped inside
the windows but that nasty sign
they put up kind of discouraged me from even stepping foot
on the property!...;(
This house has seen better days but I’ll bet it was grand
in it’s day.
A bit of fall around our house...love it!
It’s time for Canton flea mkt already!!
I don’t know if I’ll be going this month but
here are some pics from last month
that I haven’t shown you.
I would love to have this cabinet for my guest bath.
…
All the photos above were taken at Gals Gone Junkin’s booth.
They are located on row 46 in the Paul Michael Building
aT First Monday...Canton Texas.
After we received two inches of rain the other evening
these popped up...they are called rain lilies.
How they got in the middle of the lawn
I’ll never know but it makes me happy to see them ...
Have a wonderful week!!
These photos were taken at Gals Gone Junkin in Canton
this past month. She always has such great displays.
I love JUNK!!!
We had a baby donkey yesterday! I’ll post pics later this week!
Rust and chippy paint! We loaded up the truck
twice and needed to come back but
there’s always next month...
Jena and Monica shopping with Margaret.
See the stack of suitcases on the left?
They are going to be in Jena’s new shop.
Hmmmm, these chairs would look nice.
Loved this one!
This was our last load, see the trunk? It was so
cool on the inside, it had drawers
and shelves and it even had an envelope...maybe for
lingerie type stuff or jewlery.
So cool!
This vendor has a lot of industrial type stuff.
He’s expensive though.
Canton was wonderful despite the heat, 102 in the shade
but we hung with it and I don’t think
we missed anything.
Hope it’s cooler next month!
