Gorgeous View

Wow. What a view. Have a great Fall weekend. via

Nice Family Photo Wall

I love this idea for displaying family photos, all the same size, in the same frames, and all in black and white. It's a very pleasing, well thought out wall, agreed? via

BBC Music Video - God Only Knows

Old song by Brian Wilson of The Beach Boys to launch BBC Music.
Click here if you can't see the video below.

This is so wonderful. This song has been stuck in my head all day. It was featured on the ABC evening news last night. View it full screen on your computer for the full effect. Enjoy!

Small Vintage Bathroom

It's small but mighty. I love every inch. Amazing vintage bathroom with frosted glass door panel, penny tiles floor, glossy white pedestal sink, brushed nickel faucet, vintage scale, gray walls paint color, subway tiles shower surround and vintage glass pendants. It's all you really need, isn't it? via

So Many Acorns This Year

I have bumper crops of acorns and chestnuts this year. The squirrels and chipmunks are overjoyed. Please tell me this is not a prediction for another winter like last year. I certainly hope not. via

Saw An Amazing Bathroom Today

The bathroom is very private. No window treatments needed.


The whole house was very nice. It was a total restoration and everything was perfect. I'm still working on closets trying to make my cottage perfect once again too. It's a daunting task but I'm making real headway. I'm almost ready to jump into my bed and turn on the flat screen for some TV viewing. See you tomorrow. xo

Lovely Mountain Cottage

I love the starkness here. When I see secluded cottages like this I always think about the building process and the challenges involved for the original owners. This one was definitely worth those obstacles. xo
