Footprints in the sand of time were not made by folks who stood still. --Unknown

Alrighty!
Hello, Thanks for popping in!
I have promised you Amish Auction pics for a month!
I'll get right to it!
 
First; they were paving by the tunnel this side of Cranbrook.
Quite a lengthy delay.
It's ok, it's summer people, that's when they do construction!
This is the temperature.
Yes I'm stopped, my cruise is just set!
 
 
This is the lineup behind me in my rearview mirror!
Goes way around the mountain!
Doesn't take much to amuse me!

 
Rexford, Montana
Quilts being auctioned off in the quilt barn.

 
Whimsical playhouse

 
Furniture barn.
The back of my mom on the left! hahahaha

 
These next 2 pics are doll furniture!
I realize I didn't get a picture of the bed, but you can see it's tiny little quilt behind the tiny night stand on the right!


 
Experiment......

 
Awesome workmanship!

 
Interesting pieces......

 
This next one is at mom's.
It's her 'man' gate, something tried to get in!

 
Did I mention that I LOVE the mountains!?
This is on highway 22 south of Calgary!
 

 
There, you finally have a condensed version!!
 
I must go get my muffins made, then I'm off to paint!
 
Yesterday I participated in our parade float for rodeo weekend here in town.
Then we all had lunch out at the office.
I cleaned my saskatoons I had picked the night before (they were picked before Firepit Friday), did the laundry, painted one of the window frames on the garage at Vanessa's, emailed my aunt 2 recipes for rhubarb, and was drinking wine with Sarah shortly after 8 pm!
Today is a second coat of paint on the window frame, washing the entry, and it's Sunday supper!
 
Hope you're all well!
Talk to ya later!

All those products from the Amish auction amaze me... the doll furniture is just too cute! But I have to say my favorite is probably the playhouse? Or that extraordinary table after all?! Keep enjoying summer!

Ah Gail, thanks so much for sharing these things your mention of saskatoons, had me searching as to what on earth they are, little like blueberries so they look to me.. They grow here really well have one of biggest Aussie farms north of here. Used to be bananas, now it's blueberries.
Wow you Do have traffic jams everywhere. Love your card down below, quick and very beautiful.

... thanks for popping over, Shaz in Oz.x
