Spooky

Hello All,
I hope you are all starting a great weekend.
I have another busy one ahead of me.

Since Halloween is right around the corner, I thought I would share a spooky photo of me in front of the Moss Beach Distillery. A restaurant high on the cliffs in Northern California. (Moss Beach)
It is suppose to be haunted by the Blue Lady. My husband and I had a lovely dinner there overlooking the cliffs and the beach below.
We didn't see anything that night, but when we took a closer look at the photo of me in front of the restaurant, we saw these strange orbs in the photo. (Click to enlarge photo) None of the other photos from that same trip came out like this. Orbs are suppose to be energy of spirits.
I thought this was a fitting little story for the week before Halloween.

Have a spooky weekend!!
Love,

Views From My Weekend!

Hello all,
Hope you had a great weekend!
My husband and I had a little weekend getaway for our upcoming anniversary, which is actually this coming Thursday, October 23. It it our 32ND!!
We went to San Luis Obispo. A college, beach town 2 1/2 hours up the coast from our home. It was lovely Fall weather. We had a wonderful time relaxing, and exploring.
We stayed at the Apple Farm. Quaint rooms, good food, and atmosphere.
I didn't get too many photos, but one I did get was of the waterwheel, entrance, and beautiful plants. Our daughter Amanda and her husband Joe met us for lunch on Sunday afternoon. They were traveling back from their weekend getaway to Half Moon Bay. A little farther up the coast, almost to San Francisco. They went up for the Pumpkin Festival that is held there every year.
While touring around, we found an old cemetery from the 1800's. I am fascinated by them. I took some photos of the interesting headstones.
We just got back home today, so I am busy playing catch up. I will try to get around to your blogs asap.
Hope you have a great week!
Love,
Rosemary

Show and Tell

Hello,
Happy Thursday!!
I started my day with my morning walk. I walk every week day with my friend Joan.
I then went to get my nails done. They really take a beating with all of my projects.
Here is one of my latest projects. A Thanksgiving garland, which will be going to Garden Memories this weekend. I drew out the oak leaves, painted and glittered them.

Here is a little turkey box I added to my box repertoire. Above the turkey,( because I can hear you wondering),little hanging letters. I had a special order for D's and C's.

A new Make a Wish wand, and a new ballerina box. They keep dancing out of the shop. I got some of my ballerinas from my friend Jamie at http://simplymeart.blogspot.com/ Visit her,
she makes the prettiest vintage jewelry ever!!

Got a little email note from my friend Jennifer Grey today. She requested a picture of the washstand I purchased from her. I used it in the corner of my bedroom. Pretty hand towels, courtesy of Garden Memories. www.gardenmemoriesgifts.com

Now I am glittering some new crowns, so much for my nails.

Have a great day/evening!!

One more note, I discovered my friend Manuela formerly of The Feathered Nest, has a new blog, http://thepleasuresofhomemaking.blogspot.com/ I'm so sorry that I did not realize this sooner. Anyway visit her, you will love her blog. Glad she is back blogging!

Chat soon!!

Love,
