Webster up close. I couldn't get him to relax his ears.
Webster far away on our walk this morning.

Webster far away on our walk this morning.
Yesterday's blue sky with puffy white clouds.
After "helping me" hang out laundry, Webster retreated to a cool, dark spot under the bed. He always leaves his feet sticking out so I will know where he is.
I'm beginning to think I must have something printed on my forehead that says, "Please throw something in a plastic bag in my driveway." By the way, I would never hire this person. The conspiracy continues.
Coreposis photographed through the watering can handle.
An old shovel being used as a perch for the birds in my back garden.
Silver-plated dog bookend. One of a pair photographed before my favorite set of fine leather bindings embellished with hunting and equestrian motifs.
An American painting signed and dated (1913).
My gardening hat from the Dollar Store hanging in my vestibule beside an antique shovel. Both are within easy reach of my front garden. The hat has a Burberrys label and was made in Italy. Real or knock-off? Who cares for $1.00? I bought three; gave one to a friend and the other one lives with the riding mower.
Reverse-decoupage lamp ~ one of a pair. Made by my friend Jill and given to me as a housewarming gift 5 years ago. Better than John Derian! One of the nicest gifts I've ever received. These are really hard to make since all of the cutouts are glued from the inside and the paint is the last step before assembly to become a lamp.
Here is the lamp turned off to show the base with no bulb glare.
A circa 1918 Roseville Landscape pitcher. So nice in my cottage.
My little wisk broom hanging in front an a garage-sale wool shawl, also made in Italy.
I should name by blog A Daisy A Day. I am not going to stop until I post the perfect photo. This could be the one. Feel free to give me a shout if you are sick of daisies.

Happy Friday. Hope your weekend is wonderful. Start looking for that small town Fourth of July celebration. It's just around the corner. The summer is whizzing by, isn't it?
PS...I looked out my window this morning to find not one but TWO circulars in my driveway. One at each entrance of my horseshoe drive. It's doubly annoying now! I think it's a conspiracy, don't you?

My back is almost well. No more muscle spasms as of late Saturday night. I am still taking it easy. Never want to pull a muscle or strain my back again. Thanks for all of your notes of concern. I have the greatest blog readers and I really am touched by such caring.
I can't remember the last time I was able to hang the wash outside. Maybe Tuesday will be rainless. I love these posts. My clothes line is stretched between two trees.
What a great idea ... A drying yard with a brick floor. Your clothes are shielded from the street too because of the lattice sides. Swoon. This is definitely on my dream list.
