As you can see, I'm still playing catch-up - promise I won't bug you by commenting on each and every post I've missed as I read, but had to stop at this one at least to wish your beautiful granddaughter a happy birthday....Smiles & Hugs ~ RobinTheCrankyCrowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16314851714923955216noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7966627327636758510.post-39576948890894045002012-03-02T17:12:20.388-08:002012-03-02T17:12:20.388-08:00Happy belated Birthday to Olivia, sounds like a fu...Happy belated Birthday to Olivia, sounds like a fun girl!<br /><br />I need to get outside and clean around my yard also. Spring has just sprung on us and I didn't have time to clean out around the flowers.<br /><br />I enjoyed the treasure around your home. That mirror is old, I love those old mirrors that have look... I guess the backing is coming off? I'm not sure what makes them do that, but I think it's neat.<br /><br />How neat to have the old cabinet that your dad used every day! Very nice collection of wick trimmers. I don't think I've ever seen that many together at once. They are very, very hard to find around here.<br /><br />Lol, my dog is the exact same way. I'll have the doors open, carrying stuff in and he jumps in. I'll be done and he will not come out. I have even shut the doors and left him in there a few minutes, came back later to open the door and he just sits there still, lol!<br /><br />I enjoyed leaping around with you Betty =] Have a wonderful weekend~Angie Berry ~ Berry Homespun Primitiveshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17664447067172311957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7966627327636758510.post-46230881009440309112012-03-01T16:02:10.399-08:002012-03-01T16:02:10.399-08:00I haven't heard the word shanty in a long time...I haven't heard the word shanty in a long time either.<br />You have the neatest posts Betty!

They had very little other than their homes (shanties). The walls were held together with hinges allowing them to take them apart & move on. Out door fires & old wood stoves for heat inside the shanty. They were humble folks who sat on their makeshift porches & waved as you passed by. They are all long gone now & many have forgotten them. Memories. Prayer for Amanda. Happy Birthday to the birthday girl.

I just returned from feeding the horses in the rain. I have spent my first week of retirement going over to the barn, about 15 miles from home, to get used to the morning feed schedule. Of course there are 10 horses to feed there; I'll only have three when we get them home! Love seeing all your pretty primitives; I too love that charm and simplicity. I love that you are preparing for spring! I have to clean up this wreck first. I'll hope to chat with you tomorrow!
