Happy Place ~~

Happy Tuesday Morning Friends
I'm in such a Happy Place ... my most favorite time
of year is upon us ...... the mornings have a chill in the
air, the nights are the same way ....... and during the day
when you step out in the sunshine you
warm through & through. 
For me this is the most ideal weather ..... I love
pulling on a favorite sweater, and sipping
my tea while  I peak for slight changes
in the trees that surround the cabin.
I just finished packing up the RV... we are heading back
out to Amish country in PA for a few days. 
 This trip I hope I come home with my Cinderella,
Peach & Green PumPkins ..... a nice primitive bucket,
 barrel or crock would also be fun to find. 
Love all the Goodies I stumble upon in PA !!
But mostly I love the time I get to spend
alone with my DH and the Memories I
bring back each and every visit.

"You are today where your thoughts
have brought you;
you will be tomorrow where your
thoughts take you."

The shop here at the Cabin is opened
by appointment ... and I thank all who have come
in to visit & purchase this Fall Season.

Cathy ~~ Thank You for my
CT green PumPkin ... your a
Doll for thinking of me, and a whiz for
finding it so early in the Season.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you have a few minutes to spare,
I have posted a couple of new
 pictures on my picture trail , and
have a few items up for Sale. 
I Thank all who take the time to
visit here & there and leave a comment. 
Sending Best Wishes for a Blessed
Fall Season & Hugs

Good Monday Morning ~~

Good Monday Morning ~~
The wind is blowing its dark & gray outside,
and I have a few PumPkins .... could it be
Fall is right around the corner. lol

DH & I went camping this weekend down
Lancaster way .... I had it in my head to come
home with a few PumPkins and that I did.
Bless my Husbands heart he drove, and drove till we
found a field where they were growing.




Not an easy task at this time of year,
I could have bought a cat, a dog, a goat, some tobacco
or a truck load of corn but pumpkins not so much.
(I was told they have had trouble with
pumpkins in years past so its not a sure crop.)
When we finally found a field ... we had to locate the
Farmer,  thanks to some neighbors .. we found him
a couple of large fields away.
He was an Old Order Mennonite Gentlemen around forty.
He had  seven children of varying ages ...  four boys, and
three girls, the boys were out helping him in the fields.
We asked if there was a possibility if I could purchase
a few pumpkins and he graciously said yes.
We walked right out and he
let me pick the ones I wanted.

 
We talked for a good half an hour as he was most interested
in hearing about Connecticut.
 These encounters make the trips
to PA so memorable for me.
If I believed in former lives ~~ I would say
I must have lived one or two of mine  in Pennsylvania !! :-)



The rain we had yesterday, and the rain we are getting today is most
welcome we are in desperate need of it.
I hope where ever you are you are getting just what you Need.
