Frolicking Forest Fairies

 

Glamping in Idaho, was a real blast, with Sisters on the Fly and friends.  Here is Linner’s very patriotic trailer….too cute.

 

 

Look at this choice spot in the woods for my best gal, Driving Ms Daisy! 

 

 

Here is another trailer (Mig’s) waiting for her magic touch….

 

 

 

Here’s the real majic, Mig and her Mom, dressed in the party theme! 

 

 

I just love this picture!

 

 

 

 

Goofy Fairies!

 

 

 

Some fairies just have an attitude….for humor!

 

 

 

I wonder if that is Lisa’s trailer? 

 

 

 

 

Can you tell we had a great time frolicking in the woods?

Fairy Forest Weekend

 

It was a birthday weekend, (happy birthday, Mig) and a Sisters on the Fly and friends, get together over in the beautiful woods of Idaho.  Thanks, Mig.  Isn’t this the cutest pillow made from a t-shirt?  I love it Mig.

 

        

 

Here is the birthday girl on the right, Mig, with Debbie….you go girls!

 

 

Miggy’s mama looking just stunning at 91!  Or is she going on 17?  Fabulous!

 

 

Love the hats!

 

  

 

I love this tray that Mig made for her new cowgirl trailer…the Hobo! 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This girl knows how to decorate!

 

 

 

Inside and out!

 

 

 

Can you believe how cute this is….?  I just love the shape. 

 

 

 

Love this warm décor…Mexico! 

 

 

 

I just had to laugh, when Shasta on the left, tried to hide behind the screen door to check out the two month old chicks….bad dog!

 

 

 

Ok, I know you want to see more cute vintage trailers….well, here you go, this is Carolyn’s Chick on the Run…pretty cute, huh? 

 

 

 

 

Lisa is a newbie…but she really has a gift…for decorating!  This is the same trailer as mine, she is not sure of the year but maybe a ‘72, where mine is a ‘69.

 

   

 

 

This girl knows how to entertain!  However, you just need to wait, this gal….well, let me just say, she knows how to show off her Irish blood, hey, Lisa, you are Irish, right? 

 

 

I just love this….It’s so light and airy…so open…lots of room..just like mine but the openness of the curtains…the colors…love it all! 

 

 

 

Too cute! 

 

This is Island Girl’s trailer, our hostess…..she is the most loving person I have ever met.  And tomorrow, I will be showing you the forest fairies…..

Thriftin’ Time Tuesdays

 

I never intended to garage sale, I was headed to get some body work done but it was such a beautiful day, the birds were chirping, I was on the South Hill, you know, that really nice area, where you love to garage sale…everyone has one. So….

 

 

I found this sweet little souvenir photo album for a buck….yes, a buck! 

 

 

It even had some fun pictures inside….from the 40’s and 50’s. 

 

 

Now, how old would that young man in the center be, today?  He sure is a cutie pie!  Hummmmm…..  I think he could have stole my heart.  Or would it have been that little guy on the left?  Love his smile, too.

 

 

I sure got my dollar’s worth, huh?

 

 

 

 

 

Another buck purchase!  All in a day’s work…not bad, huh?

Early Morning Walk About

 

Michelangelo was out and about early this morning, with his newest buddies.

  

 I never realized how hard it was to take pictures of black chickens!  Yikes.  These are Black Sex Links and Michelangelo, is part BSL, too.  The girls are Harriett Tubman and Bessie Johnson.

 

 

 

This is about the first time, these two girls have gone out this far into the yard.

 

 

 

I think things must be settling down in the Chicken Mansion.  Amelia Earhart and Eleanor Roosevelt, my original girls (is that a Madonna song?) are in their nesting boxes.  I hope they can produce some eggs today, I have only had one egg every other day, lately. 

 

Clara Barton, one of the new ones, hardly ever leaves the coop.  However, she was the aggressive one in the beginning and that was how I found out Michelangelo, was blind in one eye.  He does pretty well but his depth perception is off….but what the heck, so is mine.  And no one is putting me in the pot. 

 

When I was garage saling, while Glamping in Kennewick, WA, I picked up an old metal drawer, the kind that held flour/bread in the old Kitchen Queen’s.  I only paid $1.50 for it and just knew I could use it for something but what? 

Well, I figured it out.  I got one new hen, that is laying her eggs on the floor in the corner.  So I plopped the drawer on it’s side, below the galvanized nesting boxes and we’ll give it a go….hope it works.
