On our long, long drive to Florida, we made a side trip to Helen, GA. We had family to visit, and were excited to see them, not even knowing what a gorgeous, little tourist town they lived in.
We had unpleasant weather, not the best to be pulling a camper along twisty, mountain curves. But the scenery was still spectacular, if spooky.
Being in a truck with three freshly bathed dogs on a long trip, started out as an adventure.
The rain soon turned it into a wet, muddy mess.
Luckily, our family was made up of understanding, dog people. It all worked out.My SIL, Sharon keeps a mop handy for their big dogs too.
She and I got out to explore the town a shop a little.
The town is on a river in the mountains, and I hope to return in nicer weather for some hiking and floating.
On this visit, we stuck to indoor activities, and I found these fantastic, vintage beaded pieces at the local antique mall.
Most of the trip was spent catching up and chatting in their new, hillside cottage. I was touched to see a plethora of things I’d made over the years.
Like this kitchen island.
Way back when I had a furniture business, I was always building pieces out of scraps of this and that.
I used to paint a lot of trays too.
So many trays, boards, signs, cabinets, whatever had a blank space, got all flowered up.
Well, not always flowers. This cabinet was damaged so I added a mouse hole.
She had an old watercolor of mine too.
It was sweet of her to keep these around.
At the moment, I am recovering from knee surgery. If you tried to get ahold of me to sign up for Bluebirds Song, I will be getting back to you soon.
thaks to sharing. thats great for me
thanks
