Our Fall Foliage Day Trip

Yesterday hubby and I went on our annual drive up the Blue Ridge Parkway to see nature's beauty and I was able to sneak in two stops along the way to a couple of shoppes I'd been wanting to visit as well! The Blue Ridge Parkway did not disappoint and we also checked out the frontier life exhibit displayed by the Shenandoah National Park Service. When you walk along the path you'll find a log cabin and several other structures including a pantry, of course I had to take pictures to share!

Grater Make-Do

I got this unique grater make-do gathering from Margo on ebay a couple of weeks ago, she has such awesome offerings, and just today I decided how I wanted to display it. I couldn't decide if I wanted to lean it somewhere or could it be possible that I actually have an empty piece of wall space somewhere in my house? aha!! I do! Next to the primitive cupboard in my breakfast nook was just the right spot for it to hang! Isn't it cool?

Anxious for peak foliage....

I just can't wait for peak foliage to occur on the Blue Ridge Parkway!....husband and I are making it an annual trek, this will be our third year, it's only about an hour and a half away!....I have been watching the foliage reports on the Shenandoah National Park web site and it looks like it'll be in the next week or two yippee!....I'll be sure to take pictures and post them here!....oh and here's the link to the foliage report: http://www.nps.gov/shen/parknews/fall_colors.htm

Wow it's almost October!

Time sure flies when you're having fun and even when you're not! ha!....I just finished updating my PictureTrail with fresh seasonal pictures taken around my home so have a look if you'd like!

Anxious for Autumn

I don't know about you but I am anxiously awaiting the arrival of Autumn! Why you may ask? Well because aside from the fact that Autumn decorating is so much fun and that the colors of Autumn are so spectacular, the main reason is because Autumn means that Winter is just around the corner and I LOVE WINTER!! Oh I just can't wait for that cold crisp air, I just love it! It doesn't snow nearly enough here in Central Virginia but when it does it's MAGICAL!!

I just finished updating my web site with New Items as well as an Autumn Harvest catagory full of fun stuff! I've added pictures of a few examples!
