It's Raining Shoes!


Remember the saying 'waiting for the other shoe to drop'? Without going into great detail, I've had a lot of shoes dropping on me during the past three weeks.  It started when I backed into a car. No worry. I'm fine and so is my car. Then a series of other happenings: appointment canceled without notification (gas and time wasted), health crises of two family members, husband's work slowdown (picked up now), propane leak in the furnace (repairs the cost of a week's pay-ouch!), and finally ANTS in the kitchen. Whew! I think it's finally over. So now when I here the phrase 'it's raining cats and dogs' I will always think of 'raining shoes'!

Now for a 'walk in the park'. The following shots were taken a few years ago of a local 4H center park, my favorite place to take a walk. I haven't been able to visit there in about 4 years and I really miss it. And no, I didn't doctor these pictures...it really is very 'green' under the tree canopy there. I have many more pictures of this wonderful woodland that I'll share in the future.

  3. Hi, Roxanne. Ain't it the truth? When it rains, it pours. Lovely photos, however, to cheer us up! And I enjoyed your photos of the quilt show, especially the quilters quilt (very refreshing). A lot of talent and creativity in that show!
    best, nadia
