Three Notes of Spring

When spring begins to play its symphony, you can begin to see it's sheet music everywhere.

Sun Play

We finally got a bright enough day to play with some lens flares. The moss covered roof at the McKinley access of the Illinois & Michigan Canal seemed to just drink up the morning sun.

D is for Doll

One of my favorite quotes is....... "Grandma's are just Antique Little Girls". This seems to bear that out!

Window on the World

Blue Bottomed Bag

I knit this market bag along with a group of knitters on Ravelry. I've got two others finished already. This is a KAL (knit a long) during the month of April.

Swan Lake

All the Pretty Ponies

I'm not sure this is what Kenny Logins had in mind!! While on a drive last weekend we had to back up to get a photo of this unusual sight on rte. 24 west of Fairbury, IL. According to one of the local I asked this line of old riding horses began many years ago with just one sitting atop what he thought was a field marker. Over the years people have continued to add to the collection and the row of parading steeds has grown in number. I was told they plow and plant around the parade of pretty ponies and that the sight seemed pretty normal to him. LOL I quote, "Well folks just bring their old horses here when they are through with them". I have to admit, I wished I had one to add! ............. Here's your sign!!
