I bought one of these egg cups for my friend Jean. She is famous for her Chicken Chaple , as seen on HGTV.
I don’t use feathers, but I need to buy these feathers. I mean, how can anyone resist cups and cups of colorful feathers????
It’s a love rat, perfect for that special someone.
Do you know how many vintage valentines showcase a devil? Tons! And it’s always a female demon! What’s up with that?
Well, for me, it’s a cool idea for a painting.
The Craft store my Daughter and I was looking for is Thoughtful Crafts. Here is what I think went wrong. We used my Husbands iphone to look up Crafts and that is how we found Thoughtful Craft. We should have gone the next step of looking at Thoughtful Craft’s website. Don’t laugh, but they are a graphic design company. I just found that out by googling their name.
But, we did find Cliff’s Variety store. Right in the middle of Castro is this wonderful store. Cliff’s is part hardware store, gift store, toy store and craft store. It’s the kind of place where you can get salt and pepper shakers but not just any s&p shakers. They have them in bunny form, penguin form, and bear shaped. They also have wigs. Wall decals. Stain remover. And very surprised puffer fish.
Do you want some unusual ceral bowls? They have these bunny and monkey bowls at Cliff’s. Besides being cute these bowls are plastic. I like this because I tend to break things.
I went out of town this last weekend. All of my paintings where shipped off to my Texas gallery so it was time to play. I met up with my Daughter and we headed to San Francisco or SF as the locals call it. We made it straight to Castro.
It was pouring rain. But we braved it and actually found a parking spot. We love window shopping in Castro because there are a lot of great shops there. You can have great fun just going window to window with only the occasional jolt when your eyes unexpectedly hit the window of a porn shop.
This photo is looking down a big hill we had to climb to find a craft store that our GPS system said existed. It doen’t existed. It may have once, but not now.
Here are some images of the Grand Canyon while hiking down the South Kaibab Trail.
I like showing the actual trail. I think it helps gives a idea of the conditions of heading down the canyon.
Please notice the steps. They look pretty harmless, But let me tell you, they where made by Satan hisself. Most of the steps are awkwardly higher and wider than normal stairs. They are knee jarring. Young or old, when you finish with these steps and stand your knees giggle up and down on their own accord.
Still think that it’s no problem? Well try 7 some miles of it. It is not good.
I really hate these steps.
Grand Canyon, Hermit’s Rest Trail. Fossils called Brachiopods. Once you know what the rock looks like thans contains these fossils you can see them everywhere, at the right level that is. I also found them on the on the Bright Angel Trail.
Mrs. Zuill, We would like to thank you for you inquiry regarding condos for sale in Arizona. We have found two such units that might meet your needs.
The first condo is a mutli-level Southwestern style home. For some reason this home was abandoned a while ago, but the tenants left it in good condition with only the need for some minor roof repair. The front yard is a nature lovers paradise. Walnut trees and rattle snakes abound! If you are interested you’ll have to move fast on this creek veiw home.
Our second property is a neat little pool side number. It may be smaller than the first property but there is tons of storage for your corn, squash and basket weaving supplies.
This unit’s pool is great for swimming, entertaining, and staving off drought. Great fun for family and Friends!
This unit also comes with a Granny Flat. Perfect for visitors or renting out for extra income!
Since it’s been a couple years now since I have lost a bunch of weight, I try to stay healthy by setting up events that will keep my weight on track. This usually means trips that require me to hike. Basically, I have to keep my weight down to survive the ordeal.
I have just completed my second trip to the Grand Canyon where I hiked down to the bottom, then back up to the rim.
First stop on my trip was Prescott, Arizona. I stayed in the historic The Hassayampa Inn.
The Hassayampa Inn was decked out for Halloween, and it is said that the hotel is haunted.
I loved the hand painted lobby ceiling.
I don’t know who the artist is, but these beautiful and haunting dolls added a romantic touch to the spooky decorations.
So you have seen my blog on Thunder Mountain in Imlay, NV. Now I present you with another type of personal expression in architecture. When traveling not too far from Thunder Mountain I spotted another unusual group of buildings. We were traveling thru ranchlands in Yerington, NV. (more…)
Here are pictures showing the details of Thunder Mountain.
