Little and big stuff

 I took a solitary break this week and played with metal, wire and my collection of little stories. I just
sit down and 'go away' for hours. Like reading a good book, the stories carry me somewhere else.

 Then get out some beads and play some more.

 This amazing rock with a hole was sent by my friends in Wales...and became my new talisman,
reminding me how much I want to visit them.

 Playing around with brass banding stock.

 And pendants.

 My evening sewing project. Gotta have something to hand sew at night, like a dog with a bone,
I guess.

 August 18 was our anniversary so we visited antiques/thrift stores in Williamsburg. Came home
on the ferry to the above view.

 Fifteen years, snap, went by in a flash. Still having fun.

My two sweet boys checking out a baby bird I found last week after a wind storm. Both
on tiptoes. Life is busy but very, very good.
