15/365 Garden Glass

I was trying to get a picture of my seedling and shot this without really thinking about it. It’s all glass from our back yard and I even like the way you can see the dust in the sun.

Bob bought this for me at the Cornwall Manor Fall Festival. The glass sparkles in the sun.

Warming Wood

When you heat your home primarily with wood, a wood pile is a beautiful thing. This is my neighbor’s and I actually took this picture today as I walked the beagle.

We drove along the eastern side of the river up to Hannibal, Missouri and stopped to check out the lock and dam. The Library of Congress has historic photos.

The Missouri State House

I wish it were clearer but it was a Sony Mavica after all. The Missouri State Capitol building is amazing, filled with art and history!

Conwy Castle in Northern Wales: we got there just in time to take the tour and learned a lot. This is one of my favorite photos from the trip. It’s hard to believe it has been more than two years. I’m reading English history and daydreaming about a trip.

Dredge

A retired paddlewheel, moored in the Missouri River outside Brownville, Nebraska. It houses the Museum of Missouri River History and we fondly remember the displays related to Native Americans and Lewis & Clark, dioramas with miniatures and typewritten labels. (It was 1998 after all!)

My copy of Realm just arrived, a gift from a friend. I loved my one and only trip to England and am wondering how to get back. Here’s a gargoyle from Hampton Court. In my Christmas stocking was The Tudor Chronicles by Susan Doran. And I’ve got Alison Weir’s Six Wives of Henry VIII and The Lady in the Tower sitting on the shelf.
