Dust and Stuff

Last week I purchased a new phone.

I'd read that the Samsung Galaxy S7 had the best camera, so that's what I chose.

It does take fabulous photos and I'm happy with it except for the frustration of transferring those photos to my Mac. Anyway, here goes………

Somehow, I got it to work and I was so excited that I posted these without editing them.

These were taken yesterday near Grove City, PA.

My husband and I were visiting some antique shops, which is something we rarely do these days.

We don't have space for more junk, so a few pics will do.

It was fun just to look and spend the afternoon together.

It's funny to me how some of the shops look as if nothing has changed from one year to the next.

Even the dust stays the same.

I plan to be back here more often in the future.

Hope you'll join me!

Time To Fly

I've been watching the Blue Birds fly back and forth to the bird house to feed their babies for weeks now. Today I looked out the kitchen window and saw one of the babies on the roof of it's home and another peeking out the door.

 Mama bird was nearby coaxing her baby to fly.

 Papa bird stopped by with a snack and some tweets of encouragement.

I watched the little bird fly into the nearby tree where mama bird was waiting.

A while later I went back to the window to see what they were up to, but all was quiet and I could no longer see the sweet little Blue Bird family.

They were gone.

Ribbons and Rust

After the beautiful weekend we just had, I feel motivated to spruce things up a bit around here.

The porch was the logical place to start since it was warm outside today and I'd rather be out than in. I put away the antique skis and the vintage skates and sled. In their place is an egg basket all tied up with ribbon...

and some rusty old tins and wire baskets...

 some sunny yellow pales....

and a cotton quilt that is buttercup yellow with sky blue stitching.

It covers the bench where I sit.

In a old wooden bucket are some twisted willow branches.

Now it's all spruced up and I can have my coffee out there tomorrow morning and listen to the birds sing.

Have you spruced up your porch yet for Spring?
