The morning sun keeps going behind the clouds but I think it's going to be a great day.

I put these old gardening tools to work yesterday in the rain when I was transplanting more snowdrops along my wall. I found several more big clumps in a spot where I dump my weeds. Have a great weekend. xo

1922 Cottage Bungalow, Before and After

How much do you love this farmhouse and detached garage?

I love the lookout tower on the side of the garage. The front is shown below.

This is the BEFORE photo.  Read the story of this amazing renovation by Moore Architectects and Designers here. There are more photos too.

Celebrating the Georgian Court in England

17 April - 30 November 2014

The Georgian Court and its intriguing cast of royal characters are brought to life at Hampton Court, Kensington and Kew Palaces this year with a series of events, in celebration of the 300th anniversary of the Hanoverian accession to the British throne.

Nice Property Near Me

This green barn building is part of an estate with outbuildings. The happy white building is a garage. Its twin is in the next photo.

Do you see the happy faces? The large stone main house is behind. This is a corner lot and I didn't photograph it because I had to turn in the opposite direction. I photograph it for you another day.

The people kept the landmark old red barn for their horses.

Here's a closer view showing the stone foundation and the stone walls.

Tabitha Says Good Night

I've been in a cleaning frenzy all afternoon and now I'm rushing to finish all my kitchen chores in time for Doc Martin tonight. I have my DVR set so it's not that urgent. I'm really enjoying Season 6, aren't you? Webster is all tucked in after dinner and a walk. He got cornbread on top of both breakfast and supper so he's a happy dog. Tabitha doesn't care because she's the Queen. Sleep tight, my friends. xo

Nuzzling Bunnies

I wonder what they are looking for in that gravel? via

Pink Sky this Morning

I'll be happy when the grass starts looking better in my photos. I woke up early enough this morning to enjoy this beautiful pink sky. Webster had another wedge of cornbread on his breakfast and he thanks you all for his birthday greetings yesterday. See you later. xo
