and summer marches on.....

Well now.... where have I been again?

On top of Frye Mountain.....

To watch the moon come up.....

and the lichens grow on the rocks.

and then back over this bridge.....



There are some funny folk out there on the highways....



been riding (and I use the term loosely) me pony.
(we realized after a while that the camera was in  Fish Eye mode...his legs aren't really that short.)

Notice how we make the tiny horse carry the big saddle bags...

What do you mean I can't park my pony here?

Cricket has been pressed into service as child's play thing.
Were not sure who more unsure, they seem to be eyeing each other....

and I've been in my 1/2 finished green  house.... roof, benches, no walls.

Lookin pretty good though, despite it's excesssive ventilation.

and we've been back to Maine, in the rain on a plane.
No, not really ~ just checking to see if you're paying attention.... we drove with a plan, in the van.

and we stopped at farm..... with animals.... for ice cream.
They had horses....

and wee pigglies, who smile in their sleep.

and curious sheep.

and a baby cow.

This is the farm.

and the ice cream is served from a train.
(which I did in fact fail to capture on film, so please use your vivid imaginations....)

and the we came back again.... and the moon rose up....

and the camera is on the fish eye setting again, because it would seem it amuses me.

Woah! What happened to the kitchen??  It got all bendy....

Meanwhile... back at the farm...

Hubby found this glass bottle in the wall of the old farm house.
 It says A S Hinds, who apparently made face lotion, who knew.
I am pleased to know that our forefarmers had lovely and supple skin.



yes, more treasures pulled from the rubble...
I can't help it ~ I love them. Little snippets come cascading from the ceiling like messages from the past.

Hard working boots...



Whilst it was raining, I took advantage of the time and put my dishes away again.



As you can see, it's no easy task to pick up a house.....

                          All the to and fro-ing..... it keeps us going ~ and JoJo waits (patiently?) for our return.

What's next?   

Taking suggestions for what to put into a book... 

A sketch book type thing?

Twelve months of art and quips and quotes?

I don't know ~ but it seems like a good idea.

But, then again, so does putting something in my Etsy store.  *giggle*
