Welcome Ginny Macks Crafts

Ginny is a long time neighbor and dear friend of mine. Beautiful crochet work is one of her many talents. She also makes her own patterns for crocheting. OK, that impresses me a lot. since all I can do is the straight line (chain?) stitch!!! She has wanted to join ETSY for awhile and today I helped take pictures and get her accounts set up. The top is a pattern she is selling, what a cute purse.
I think that this is adorable, there is one in lime green and I should have one in orange tomorrow. What a cute loot hauling bag for $5.00. Her Etsy address is

Take a few minutes and check out her store, she would love it.

This is what I wake up to every day. After more than 30 years I still think it is enchanting and peaceful. Those are Great Blue Herons in the pond, we have both those and white egrets nesting close to us. Funny story about the lakes and local geese. We are in a very bad draught and the lakes are almost dry. The geese have always used this lake and when they fly in at evening, (we're talking 50 at a time) the water is so shallow they don't float, they just kinda plop and stand. It really is funny to watch.

The sad part is to watch all the rain go either to our west or east. I hurt my shoulder July 10, Dennis has mowed the grass once. We started watering the big trees because we're afraid they were dying.
