Do you remember The Wizard of Oz? Do you remember that before Dorothy started following the Yellow Brick Road she was picked up by a tornado and went through that chaos? I'm stating to think that all Yellow Brick Roads are preceded by the chaos of a whirlwind! I'm getting ready to get on my own Yellow Brick Road later this week for a "Trip Of A Lifetime" with my Mom. I'm very excited about this trip BUT I feel as though I were in the middle of a whirlwind right now. I am in the middle of getting meals in the freezer for my men and catching up on housework. I have to fix the pepper jelly I made last week that never set (sigh), and there is a big box full of apples that have to be turned into apple pie filling and canned before they rot. A friend has invited me to share a booth with her at a craft show which just happens to be the day after I get back. I'm very excited about that ~ it will be my first craft show! ~ but I have to get things ready or I will be sitting there with nothing to sell. So this week is cooking, cleaning, canning, crafting, and packing, all to be finished by Thursday mid-morning. All this explanation to say, "Please excuse me if the posts are more pictures and fewer words this week".
I will be going to Vermont by way of Amtrak. I will be spending time with my Mother and my Aunt Roberta. There will be maples in full color. There will be LOTS of pictures. I will post if I can while I am gone, but this will not be my highest priority.
Here's a final glimpse of Boone Hall
They even had Fairy Houses
I have no idea what this flower is. If you know, please leave me a comment
Here's a close-up
Life at the Citadel is not ALL hard work! They had the most elaborate refreshment tent at the games.
There you go. Have a good week!
