Here's a close up look at it...Oh girl I just did my "Happy Dance" when I got this...love the little basket with flowers and flags...
Now this is my old Schwinn Bike that I have had for many years...just gave it a new coat of Red paint last week added a basket of flowers and flags and put it on my front porch...Now last year Len and I were at Lowe's and I found these window shelf's brackets and had to have them...I have always loved window boxes...just something that says WELCOME to me about them...
Now this is my little ole carport with some of my tractors wheels...And you see that pink flower pot hanging there...well 3 weeks ago a Mama Blue Jay made a nest and laid 4 eggs in it and on Monday she hatched all 4 of them..So now I have Mama and Daddy flying in and out all day feeding these naked little babies...I have taken a ton of pictures of them....
Another wagon wheel that hangs on my house and a 2 man saw...
This is an Old scale I have ivy in hanging from the up stairs desk... Now I know this kind of junk is not for everyone...but I do love my Antiques inside and outside...
Now Wally made this wind chimes years ago for me...its all brass tubing and has a boat spinner on the end of it...weights a ton...but when it goes off it sounds like the Bells of St. Mary's...
Now this is the basket I did for my bike...
Remember me telling you my entry way was in a Barn Silo...of course you do...well this is the top of the Silo where my stairs are and my front doors...its all round...it really was hard for my contractor to put square doors in a round frame...but he did it...
Just a few jugs I have at the door...and an old Ice cream Parlor chair that the bottom fell out of...so I painted it and made it into a planter...
My Guard Bear...this was made by a local guy using nothing but a Chain Saw....
An old mop bucket I also use as a planter...
Hand pump...this all sits on an old school desk...
2 old crocks and that stick thingy is a Branding Iron...this all sits on the right side of my doors...
I am flying our colors....Not only because I am a proud American...But also for my Grand son Jacob...which brings me to why I have been MIA....Its hard to type when you can't see because you have been crying....You see my Jacob didn't not get his extended leave...so He left today by train to go to Texas...as he have to be there no later than Monday to check into Ft. Hood...and report to duty by May 20, And his wife due on May 22nd..Left with him...So that's means my Dawna won't be able to see her first born grand child being born...Oh I just pray we don't have an Amtrak baby ha ha!! I am worried sick about these kids traveling by train to Texas and her due at any time...
Any hoo I had to drop everything Yesterday to make a trip to go see him before he left...We went to Olive Garden for dinner and I had a Hugh lump in my throat just looking at him and wondering when would be the next time I got to see my boy...Dawna didn't even get to see her Son and say Good bye...so she is just heart broken...we all tried to tell Morgan his wife to wait until she had the baby and he had housing for them...but said after him being gone to boot camp for 4 months she wanted to go with him now...Oh to be young again and not think beyond today...Like I said hope we don't have an Amtrak baby also pray there a Doctor riding the rails with them if we do...Take care Jacob Grandma is so proud of you !!!Thanks guy for coming by and seeing me with my swollen eyes....You guys are the best...
May all of you have a safe and great day....
Hugs and smiles Gl♥ria
