HOT HOT HOT Friday...

Sharing a firey hot focal relisted this morning...It was tough getting a great shot of this beautiful hollow...It is so much prettier in person...Guess you'll have to purchase it to find out...

The Power of Mother Nature...What a Storm...

We had some very powerful storms roll through our area yesterday evening...As several neighbors reported they definitely saw a twister...We have so many down trees, and lots of houses damaged...Several families had to leave their homes because of major structural damage...We were lucky in that we didn't have to leave our house...Still we have some structural damage to the house and a lot of town trees...So many trees were just cut right in half...Take a look at the pictures below...

One of the firemen who came knocking at our door to make sure we were ok said it looks like a twister tried to touch town but only hit the tops of trees...We sit very low and I think that's why we faired better than our neighbors...

Thank God no one was hurt or injured...

Tuesday's Treat...

A quick post from me before my day begins...I just relisted this mini set and I think would make a cool piece of wearable art...
