A Bunch of Different Albums
A few pictures of Gettysburg, PA, from a conference that I went to at Hoffman Homes. I definitely need to do a real visit at some point~I can't believe that I live so close and that this was my first brief drive through! Very beautiful town...
My Reflection of Dreams dreamcatcher. Special touches such as two badger claws, two crow feathers, swan feathers, a piece of turtle shell and the regular accessories (horse hair, turkey feather, pheasant feathers, etc).
There is now a legitimate fear of my driveway. Check out the pictures from that scary Saturday night when a multitude of people became trapped in my house as we attempted to find a tow truck to remove the car straddled across my driveway. No, it was not due to alcohol--it was the result of a friend backing out of my driveway in the dark for the first time--never an easy feat! At any rate, due to a pipe that had strategically placed itself in front of the tire that backed over the ledge, a tow truck was the only possible way to free ourselves...
Stunning pictures that Nikki took of the Atlantic Ocean--these are fantastic! Plus new pictures of the lobotomy lamp.
Photos of some of my before and after garage sale finds. I'm never quite sure if they are going to be worth the work that I inevitably put into them; but these ones panned out nicely. The antique stove actually belonged to my parents before I was born, but they eventually went modern and it sat in my grandma's storage for the next 30+ years (and apparently was a fine home to squirrels and spiders alike).
Some pictures that Stein took--mostly neat photos of Denmark (Jylland, Kobenhaven, Amalienborg, etc)--but also some cute photos of her babies, Magnus and Milo. Keep an eye out for Milo as he is becoming quite the poster boy for blue British Shorthairs! Also, Stein has finally started her own picture blog (Hooray! Way superior to mine) and while you're at it, check out her regular blog, too.
Photos of the bizarre and creepy doll that lurked in Michelle's old basement. It sat up on a ledge, out of reach, but was the first thing that you saw when you opened the basement door. There were other creepy toys that hung around and moved on their own free will, but I wasn't willing to hang out down there any longer than I did!
My own creepy little doll, Ringo from the Beatles. He may have been neat back in 1964 when he was created (currently only worth $100 in mint condition); but my lucky fellow was painted to resemble Mr. Rogers at some point, making him completely valueless. Except in my eyes, of course, I still think he's pretty cool!
And of course, those random photos that didn't quite make up their own album...
