More Vacation Pics

 Huge hollowed out Redwood tree.

 It was really not very comfortable, but a great photo op.

 more of my gatherings

 This old guy watched over the entrance 

to the cabins where we stayed.

A very cool, old carved piece of driftwood. 

I think there is a dog laying at his feet, kind of behind him on left side.

 I know this looks sideways, but it is not. 

And it is not a  plastic mushroom as it might look.

 On one of our walks, this real mushroom was placed on this branch.

Someone had ofund it in the woods, I'm guessing,

and palced it three. Maybe to come back later and get it.

We have never seen anything like it.

Anyone know about it???

 This is an old water tower in one of the towns

I walked around while Scott played golf.

 And here are some really cool trees.

Scott said they are Cypress.

 He was showing me how these branches just grow up out of the ground,

or curve around and grow into the ground.

and we found lots of moss laden logs and trees.

I gathered lots for the sale in November at the store.

All for now. I think 1 more day of pics for you.

You will love what I will show you next time!!!!

Vacation Pics

 

We just got home from a wonderful weeks vacation in sunny California.

The area is called Point Arena and it is about 140 miles north of San Francisco.

I was going to tell you the above picture was our cabin,

but I knew you would not believe me....

 

So, here is the outside of our real little cabin.

And here is the row of the other 43 just like it!

 Our little kitchen.

 bedroom

 and living room. A total of 350 sq. feet.

Just right for two people who after 42 years have learned

to share quite well. =)

 

Here we are at breakfast.

 Miss frugal ( meaning me) tore the paper towels in quarters to use as napkins.

This is my sweet fella 'complaining' sweetly about it. 

"C'mon. Can't a guy even have a whole napkin around here?"

Sorry, hon, when you are frugal you are frugal, 

whether the paper goods were bought by us or someone else.

(I did relent, and gave him whole paper towels the rest of the time.

After all, my fella deserves the best!) =)

 Here are a few pics of the beautiful coastline.

In most of the area there were cliffs rather than beaches.

So relaxing to hear the waves hit the rocks.

We usually went for several walks a day.

 We did find a couple of areas where little beaches were accessible.

Tomorrow I'll show some pics of the gorgeous trees we saw, and

treasures we found..

Thanks for coming by.

BACK FROM VACATION

This is the view from the balcony of our room.
We overlooked the golf course.
Weather was beautiful.
Scott golfed and read.
I crafted, and shopped.
(A great antique/crafters mall there in Klamath Falls
if you get down that way!)

Nice weather, safe travel, no anxiety for one week!
A great vacation!!

I'll try to catch up on my visits, and share some new insights
with you as time permits. This is a hectic time at the store because of
Christmas/ holiday sales coming up.
THIS WEEK IS FIRST ONE!!

If anyone wants to be added to the email list for store sales.
please email me with that info.

Blessings
