Abbey should be excited about this post because it includes more photos from woodpiles in Vermont.
These amazing birch logs at my Father-in-law’s (also named Bob) have turned all metallic and pealing beautiful. You might remember my other photos of his woodpile which have made their way around my blog block.
This photo taken by BobDad (that’s easier to type) is of his parents’ wood pile. It’s a good illustration of their overall well-stocked and organized home.
And while we’re on the subject of stacks, this is a vertical collection of floral patterned mattresses back at BobDad’s.

We hiked a few of the shorter trails and even saw a rattlesnake that was too quick for my camera. For city folk like us, seeing a rattle snake in the wild is a big deal.

It felt good to be out in the sun for a change, but it proved to be a little too [...]
I recently added this set of 6 Hexagon Coasters to my Etsy shop. They’re the last product on which you’ll be able to get my bubbles print since I just retired it to make room in my collection for some great new patterns. Get your (extremely) limited edition (only two sets made!) linen and [...]
