Winter Atmosphere



It'way too long since posting here! It's a combination of ways I'm learning to let go of the last 28 years of having the shop. The snow today is an inspiration, and is a fitting compliment to my day of painting driftwood Santas, with a fire crackling in the fireplace. A cozy day!

The boat is on dry land in its spot by the driveway. We took it out early, but I'm grateful it's home and the stress of weather-worry is over. I still must cover it for the winter, but I'm sure there will be sunny October days ahead when I can do it.

Yesterday, I guess I sensed what today would bring. After a trip to the library for a couple of books and a movie, I came home to set up the trailer on the mower and the chain saw, and cut up some logs in the woodpile....some of which are now burning nicely in the fireplace, and some are dry in the woodbox, and some are by the door, covered with snow.

There are several outlets for my santas, including Valley Junction, Perry, and of course my website, which can be accessed by clicking on the trAloola icon here. (I'm working on getting better photos posted!)

Note the turkeys and pilgrims that are pictured on my "booth"

Sorry for those of you, especially Jackie and Russ at Covered Bridge, Dave and Dee biking at Honey Creek, and friend June showing in Galena today. I hope you're having a good day and finding the snow improving the mood of all.

Hopefully, I'm going to be up-dating here again --sooner than this last delay. So, back to the paint,another log on the fire, and a good afternoon.

Thanks to so many of you who have shown support and encouragement.........

And.....Till later.......
Marge
