Did you know we love antique lamp posts?  Did you know we have a collection of them?  ????   I am sure you aren’t shocked.  My love of them came about 30 years ago.  My dad called and said he saw two at an auction.  He wanted one and wondered if I would want the other […]

If you missed the pergola swing we built a month or so ago, you need to start there.  This is the one project I was looking so forward to when we got out here to the woods.  We built one similar at our last house in the woods and I cannot tell you how much […]

  We had a pond dug…   I know I talked about that already.  But if you have been following along on social media, you know it’s ALMOST done.  I have had SO MANY of the same questions being asked so I thought it would be best to answer them here.  Keep in mind, we have […]

Remember when I shared our new little garage that we had delivered at our woods?  Well…. you know how one project leads to another with Deb and I.  Once we get one thing accomplished, it sparks creativity for another one.  We can’t sit still for very long.  Our brains are way too active for sitting.  […]

Remember when we went to the Springfield, Ohio Extravaganza?  And we brought home SEVERAL pieces?  Gahhhhhh.  That was the most fun we’ve had in a long time.  I’m not sure if I shared this, but we went on Friday, the day it opened.  Our tickets were good through the entire weekend.  The weather was absolutely […]
