Long time, no post!

 I have been working a lot and also 2 weeks ago I went to NYS to see my son and family. We really had a good time and went to the zoo one day where I took this great picture of the Thistle and bee!
My granddaughters Sarah and Kelsey were at the zoo with us and indulged us with taking pictures in front of the statue.


My daughter Barbara went with me on the trip and one of her favorite places to go is a Tom Thumb Ice Cream Restaurant overlooking Owasco Lake where we all took pictures of the beautiful sunset.  It has been there forever and I was surprised that the owner is now white haired and aging.  Time never passes in our minds....

It was beautiful weather while we were there and not unlike what the weather is in SC.  

And I happened to be there when my 1960 Class had their monthly luncheon so I got to see about 11 classmates!  That was fun, too.  I am the first one on the left and my sis-in-law next to me.

And this poor old girl was the eldest Elephant at the zoo.  I always feel so sorry for the animals that are caged or tethered.  There were several elephants though that were moving about freely in a large field.

I have been subbing at a doc's office this whole last week and got very tired-ha!  Old age is not for sissies as the saying goes!  I am catching up on my posting and will post more pictures on my other blogs over the weekend.
Thanks for visiting and do come again.
My wild heart to yours...

MORE INTARSIA WOOD PIECES BY BILL

HERE ARE SOME MORE OF BILL'S WONDERFUL WOODWORK.  THE PATTERNS FOR THESE PROJECTS WERE PURCHASED.  Some of these projects have hundreds of pieces and are cut out on a scrollsaw.  I love all of these, especially the beautiful large fan!  He made it for me and may make some to sell.  The gun plaques are flat sided and of course are non-working.  They are merely for decor but look so real.  I hope you enjoy seeing his little gallery in our den.
