Blissful Necklace

Received my wonderful prize from Bliss Farm Antiques. A fragrant sachet and a B for Bliss necklace, on the other side of the necklace is a cut out of a dictionary of the definition of bliss and blissful. There is still time to enter her contest.

Getting Some Things Ready For Easter

I haven't painted eggs in a long time, I found some old paint in a box in the attic and thought this year I would paint a couple.

I also went to the grocery store early this morning before everyone else got there!
And got a game ready for Easter!

Gettysburg

We met with a Gettysburg Flickr group to photograph the sunset at Little Round Top. We got there a little early and we drove around some. These are some of the photos I took Saturday, I may post some others later this week.
I don't know the names of all these sites, note the cannon ball hole thru the barn and the horseback riders.

I believe this is known as the Witness tree

The gate at Triangle field with the Ellis monument in the background


Ellis Monument with the moon over his shoulder


Little Round Top, with General Warren in the background


As the sunwas setting, General Warren looks on.



My favorite of the day, I was practically laying on the ground to get this!


The observation tower at LRT, thru the arches.


Cannon and sunset, I focused on the US on the cannon. This would be perfect if the cannon was aimed right at the sun, maybe next time.

Scenic Sunday - Mama and Me

Since I had a horse for sepia scenes I decided on another horse scene for Scenic Sunday. Taken last summer at Hanover Shoe Farms, breeders for harness racing. Also, be sure to check out a new blog I have found, All in a Days Work, life on an Indiana horse farm. http://blueeyedtango.blogspot.com/


Scenic Sunday
And come back tommorw for my Gettysburg sunset photos!
