November Visitors on the Mountain
The last few days have seen some really amazing sights. Having a camera with a really good zoom lens has helped to capture some spectacular pictures of our regular visitors.

Halloween Tablescape
We had friends come stay overnight recently, so I wanted a pretty table for breakfast. Halloween is close, so it gave me a chance to create a new tablescape. A few weeks ago, I went to the opening week of a new big box crafting store for our area, and found some wonderful black chargers, …
