Goodnight everyone. Hope you had a good Labor Day. via

Cottage for Two
Don't you love this little duplex cottage? The huge brick yard with firepit would be a great place to end the day and relax. I wish I could see the other side. via
Thatched Cottage Bishopston England
My friends are sending their daughter to England today for a year of studies in London. I'm going too (mentally). This wonderful house is near Salisbury in southern England. via enchantedengland

A Lovely Formal Bathroom
I like this formal bathroom, don't you? What a nice place for a long hot soak in the tub.
Canine Humiliation | Getting a Doggie Do
Family Day at the hair salon in 1960 by John Drysdale. Have a fun holiday weekend and be sure to take your dog along.

Cat and Dog People Watching
People watching animals in Paris. My last image of the day. Goodnight. Have a great Labor Day weekend.
Antique Patina
Antiques show their age in so many ways. The stains on this pitcher can be removed but then it would look brand new. I prefer the stained version showing the patina obtained from use. How about you? I love that antique hanging letter clip a lot!
Tennis Ball Repurposed Towel Holder
There are no instructions for making this cute little hook but I think you can probably figure it out. It's a great idea, isn't it? I could use one of these in my garage, in the furnace room, and inside my closet for pajamas. His name is Mr. Wilson.

Simple Kitchen
It's really all you need, isn't it. I'd much rather have the window wall and door to the outside instead of all the overhead cabinets in my own kitchen. Do you have too much stuff too? I am a minimalist with hoarding tendencies :(
Our Favorite Royals
Isn't this the best photo of our favorite royal couple? Is that a glint of steely resolve in her eye? Love the gold and red and blue of his uniform in the corner too. via Pinterest

Cat Lookout
I usually post dog pictures but this fat cat really caught my eye. Cats can find the most precarious places to relax, can't they? Can this slingshot branch possibly be comfortable or is he out on a limb?
Little Library Ladder for Books Stored Everywhere
This would be a very handy library for many uses around the house, wouldn't it? I love this passageway library with a brick floor too. I could spend many happy hours before the fire reading on that sofa.
Don't Forget to Close the Gate
This image made me smile. Don't you love the natural archway formed by the trees? Would you go through the gate or around it? The beaten path suggests the former.
Where Did August Go, Quack Quack?
Can you believe it's September already? I am always sad to see August go because once we celebrate Labor Day the rest of the year seems to fly by faster than I can keep up.
Have a ducky day.

Library Cupboard with Ladder | Wonderful
I absolutely love this custom library cupboard with a rail and library ladder. Aren't the drawers, secretarial slices and closed cupboards below nice too? Sigh. Every home needs one.
Are Your Roses Still Blooming?
Pink roses are my favorite. How does your garden grow on the last day of August?
Come to The Side Door
I've always been attracted to gable end details on houses. Don't you like this sweet little side entrance? I like that awning transom window on the front too. I slept very soundly last night. See you later.

Life's Little Instruction Book | Volume II, page 44
More wonderful advice from H. Jackson Brown, Jr. I love this little plaid book that tells us what he told his son.
Restful Bedroom
My mind is still racing too fast to get a really good night's sleep. Plus I've been waking up way too early. Wish I could sneak off and at least get a decent nap in this lovely bedroom. Things are almost back to normal but not quite.
My thoughts and prayers are in Vermont right now. I can't believe what my eyes are seeing on the newscasts.
I hope everyone will see the light at the end of the tunnel soon.
