Some recent finds & Vacation Pictures

It's great to be home. I have tons of stuff to catch up on, in blogland and in real life. :) I have missed so many linky parties this past week. I'm not sure when I'll ever get to check it all out. As I said yesterday, my google reader was over flowing! I will be showing some of my vacation pictures this week.

We tried to make sure we were on deck for every sunset. It is an amazing sight to see. I love sunsets and sunrisings. However, we had a room darkening shade in our room, so we never made it outside to see a sunrise. Although we did a lot of walking on the ship, this was one of the most restful vacations I've ever had.

We were very fortunate to have a balcony stateroom. This is one of the prettiest shades of water I've ever seen. Isn't it beautiful?

We flew into Ft. Lauderdale, then took a shuttle to Miami to board the ship. Miami is a beautiful place! Nothing at all like Kentucky!

The weather was sunny and warm. I love sunshine. You just can't be in a bad mood when you are on the open sea, with the wind and sun on your face!

Okay, now on to some things I've come across lately:

I have this little table, with no plans for it yet. On top of the table is a table leaf. I can think of lots of things to do with it, but no definite plans yet.

While Jamie was in town in early October, I picked up these pieces at an antique mall for a dollar each.

These little goodies would have come in handy when I made my coat rack headboard.

Hello to all of my New York friends! I'm glad you stopped by today.
