We Are In This Together!

On the bottom left picture is our front door with inviting Halloween Witch and non-Halloween sign that says "On This Site In 1897 Nothing Happened".
In the upper right picture are Autumn Halloween flowers and 2 little stuffed people in a basket which sits on the front porch table. Makes our front porch look very festive at any Holiday time. It has been really fun looking for all the various Holiday decorations you will see on this blog throughout the coming year. I found some decorations on E-Bay, some at Garage Sales, some at Estate Sales, and even some at the $1.00 Store.

This is the way the window looked most of the late summer.
Here is the wonderful window and ledge on my front porch that Al built for me. When we bought our home this was just an ugly green corrigated wall. Al built up our porch and inserted an old window found at one of Ryderwood's older residents....Harold Barnes, better known as Barney. Barney loves to give things away and has a garage full of 'things' where Al usually finds that he wants. Barney and wife Pat have their house for sale as they are moving to a retirement home... they are in their 80's and just want to live somewhere with -0- yard work....
Every Holiday I change the decorations and have lots of fun with that...
The flowers in the 3 pots are Johnny Jump-Ups and the 2 cute little figurines were our porch decorations for the late summer months (after the 4th of July). I will post the porch Holiday decorations through out the next year. Please check back in and see the Thanksgiving decorations...
