MY FIRST BLOG!

Ok, this is my first post so be kind! I wanted to send along a couple of pictures of the living room with the new curtains and rug. I will do the kitchen and family room when I feel they are ready to be photographed. I am not much at decorating but I love the dab of blue that carries over into the other rooms.
My piano is now 104 years old, how the time flies! I absolutely love it and it sounds wonderful now that I have the new strings and they are all tuned.
It will be interesting to see how this turns out...maybe I didn't even get the pictures uploaded...we'll see!!

Knee High by the Fourth of July

Some of us remember the old saying of "knee high by the fourth of July". My corn is doing well and came in at an even 8 feet on July 1. It is just beginning to tassel so it will probably easily reach 10 ft in another two weeks. The summer squash in the foreground has been serving up one of our family favorites that we look forward to every year.
