Seein' Double, Double...

When my good friend Susan posted one of her beautiful landscapes she painted on Facebook, it looked so familiar to me.

Then when I read her comment, "Another painting, based on the photo taken by a friend."
I smiled from ear to ear because I knew the place!!
LOOK!

I snapped that pic right behind the ol' Countryfolk Keepsakes homestead!

Susan is an extremely talented artist and you must stop by her blog to see more of her fantastic artwork!
AND she makes awesome jewelry out of Polymer clay to boot.

By the way... She's also friends with Owen Wilson!
Nah, she's not. That's just an inside joke. ((giggle))

I See Your True Colors...

shining through.

I see your true colors and that's why I love you.
So don't be afraid to let them show your true colors.

True colors are beautiful

like a rainbow.

After my bike ride I spent part of the day paintin' a sign to put out in front of our home.
Just a friendly reminder to passers-by...

Enjoy nature!

Leaf Peepin' At The Applefest...

On Saturday hubs and I headed to the Applefest. The trees were at their peepin' peak!!

Say cheese!

What a gorgeous backdrop for the fair!
But I must say I was extremely disappointed in the vendors.
Years ago it was all talented artists sellin' their wares. Now it was mostly folks sellin' Made in China American folk art knock offs. :> (

But I did find the most AWESOME handmade Christmas mittens!! You all know I'm a mitten freak!!!

But I've got my work cut out for me tryin' to keep them from Hannah. When we came home, I saw her eye'ballin' 'em and lickin' her chops.
;> )

Yee-Haw!! The Sun Is Finally Shinin'...

And I plan to spend the whole weekend playin' in the leaves!
You should too!

Have a great weekend folks and enjoy nature!

Uh-Oh...

I'm workin' on some new Firewood Folks©
so I've wieldin' my axe...

And takin' care of business!

I'll keep you posted.

A Great Start To A New Week...

I'm with you, Mr. Scarecrow.
Happy Monday!

October is breast cancer awareness month.
Just a reminder to examine those boobies of yours.
Have a great weekend folks!
