Doesn't this look like the perfect Outdoor Sanctuary? I wish I could just snap my fingers and be there for a while. It's perfectly beautiful, isn't it?

Very Nicely Arranged Interior

I love everything in this photo, don't you. I'd have to have the chaise coming off the other end so I could lie back and watch my tiny TV in total comfort. The trunk makes a great coffee table too.

Wonderful Phrenology Head Graphic

I scanned this fabulous Phrenology Head from a newspaper years and years ago when I got my first scanner which is probably considered to be an antique by now. You can see the text bleeding through from the reverse side of the newsprint. It's the best one I've ever seen and I always look for them. I sold this porcelain head recently.

Poppy Field with Beautiful Sky

I hope your day is as beautiful as this photo.

Two Crowned Cranes | Coming and Going

A pair of crowned cranes earn the nickname 'heads and tails' as one turns its head away from the camera at the Biopark Zoo in Valencia, Spain. They are beautiful birds, aren't they? Real head turners!

Great Poster.

Beautiful Closet Doors

I love the addition of louvers on these closet doors. They would be great in a mudroom so each family member could have a vented "locker" to hide their mess.

Labor Day Picnic

I might pack up the car and go on a perfect picnic this weekend. Have fun whatever you do.

I have an extra ice chest that will be handy for the watermelon that is chilling in the fridge.

Snake Spotting On A Recent Walk

A genuine snake in the grass. I'm not afraid of them and like the fact that they eat mice. I'm terrified of the latter.
