Skywatch Friday


There's nothing nicer than a rainbow. I saw this one on my way home from work Wednesday. The rain didn't even make it to my neighborhood, but at least we got a rainbow!

Take a look at some of the other skies around the world participating in today's Skywatch.

Sherlock Holmes


Sherlock Holmes opened last night at the New Stage Theatre. I'm not really that keen on his stories, but I might go see it. A friend of mine will be attending this weekend, her review will be my guide.

Golfing Frog


For the last look at the pottery stand, I thought I'd share this froggy golfer. I'm not sure if he'd fit into our decor, but I do find him cute!


And this is how the new chiminea looks in our backyard.

More Pottery


Here's a look at some of the other lovely pieces at the local pottery stand. I really like these urns, and I'm sure they'd look great in my home/garden, but we already have some at the entrance of our home.


There's a wide selection of pots, urns, chimineas and other pieces. This weekend was not our first visit to the stand and I'm sure it will not be our last either!

Mexican Pottery


I just love these pottery stands. There's always so much to look at. Granted, alot of it is rather kitschy, but there are also a lot of nice things. My husband and I bought a chiminea to burn some leaves and branches from the garden in.

I'll show you some more items from the pottery stand tomorrow.

Welcome Back Mr. Sun!


Ahhh, it's always good to see a long lost friend, especially when he brings blue skies like this one. Our forecasters predicted sun all weekend long. Unfortunately, they were wrong - it was gray and cloudy on Saturday. But the sun finally made his way out today!

I love this type of grass. I'm not sure what it's called, but they have alot of it at the golf course. I've also seen it in a few yards here and there. Those fluffy, wheaty-looking things contrasted perfectly with today's sky.

I hope everyone had a great (sunny) weekend!
