We're Back - Well, Sort Of.........

We're back - well, sort of....... As you know, we closed the store in July and have been busy since then. We did take a wonderful vacation rafting in the Grand Canyon with six friends- a bucket list trip for sure. Now, we are slowly but surely getting rid of the inventory we have left in the store. We have a booth at Weekend Treasures and are excited about the upcoming Anniversary Celebration that will be going on next weekend, November 13-16, 2008. Please check out their blog for more information.
Below, you'll find pictures of our booth and Charlie's artwork. I always knew he had artistic talent and lately, he's been working on it. He is painting on old boards and tin. Who knows what will be next. The mushroom painting is finished and is at Weekend Treasures. The rest are works in progress. He is enjoying it and I think he doing a great job. I've also included some nature shots I have taken lately. I'm experimenting with black and white plus the antique look. Let me know what you think.
As for this blog, I plan to continue posting. I've rather missed it. Although I won't be sending email notices unless something big is happening, I hope you'll keep coming to our spot to see what is going on.

Enjoy and we hope to see you at Weekend Treasures.

Charlie and Chris

My Nature Shots
The first two I call "The Neighbors".
This deer was grazing late one afternoon. He is an eight pointer and this is the only shot I was able to get of him.

These turkeys were all in our front yard one morning. I think there were 13 in all. They hung around for quite awhile. The cat even when to check them out and it didn't bother them a bit.

I am experimenting with black and white plus the antique look. Not sure yet how I like it yet. Thoughts?
