Out in the Yard

I took these pictures last week in front of the house. Every year the bees,etc
like the "live forever" plant we got from my Nebraska grandparents.
We have had a lot of squirrels this year in our yard...
more than I ever remember having before...
These popped up on the North side of the house.....
Looking at the underneath side....

Dungeon Time

There are plenty of boxes in the dungeon that look similar to this! Sometimes they make me want to scream! haha!
Not sure about this?  I like it though!
A child's umbrella....possibly mine from when I was little? 
It has little jingle bells on it!
This stuff dates back to our wedding...why, yes, there is a
"it's  a girl!" poster...from 1988! haha!
A real sponge!
Grapevine wreath...I like the fall colored beads
Pretty little tin...I really should bring this up and do something with it!
Two ice trays that make tiny ice cubes..........and the bottom of
a roaster.......
brass cymbals...
I beleive most of this..ok all of it...would be listed as "items too numerous to
mention" on an auction sale bill! Never know what you are going to find
in the dungeon!

Fun at the Mae Place

The other day I was over at the Mae Place and actually thought
about going into the cellar and cleaning it up/nose around.  Then I thought
I don't think so! Maybe when it's like zero degrees or something so there
would be less chance of me coming across a creepy/crawling thing!
View of the freezer shed roof from the upstairs of the Mae house...
Have alot of these...this is probably half of them...Would be good to use
when doing trot lines...but really, do I need that many? hahaa!

Freeburg Sale

I went to a garage type sale in the next town to the North this afternoon.
I bought this old rusty child's wagon..I think I will like using it as some
sort of display in the yard..
Couldn't pass up this carrying case for  little cars..
There were cars being sold separately, so I bought 15 of them...can't have
too many cars, right?
Didn't need this either, but it will make a good door stop..
until I wham my foot into it..that is going to hurt......
Tyler loved all the new little cars!
He was hooked on these two in particular...His little hands are so cute holding them!
What a sweet little boy he is!

Wednesday Randoms

Some results of the cooking from our last church dinner..
This is part of the potato chips they made...
And part of the pork steaks....
I have seen a chipmunk using this hole....it is right by our garage.
"Indian" corn is so pretty!
Fall display in front of our house. Note the volunteer cherry tomato
plant on the right...looks kind of out of place with the pumpkins!

Hummingbird that got into the garage today....
I think I can safely throw this away now!

Old Paper Stuff

An old puzzle...interesting picture, but has seen better days!
These old business cards came out of the old school building.
Interesting in that no websites are listed....also these were from before
our area code was changed. Wonder how many of these are still around.
Also in with these papers was an account of how all the typewriters at
school were stolen on January 8, 1968. As far as I know, they were never
recovered.
no mention of anything related to a computer here....it was a different time.
