Working on fluffing our Mountain Home in Virginia

The Island Mike created from a thrift store desk! A piece of plywood, (8) 12x12 Granite tiles. He even added wheels so it can be moved anywhere we need it inside the great room or even out to the deck...a wonderful addition for less than $100...way 2 Go Mikie!

Do I look excited or what..so many pretty things...


Mountain flowers...

A little bathroom whimsy on the mountain...

Our Mountain is only 8.5 miles from Downtown Roanoke...known as the Star City of the South...we always look for the lighted star when we drive or fly back into Roanoke. When we see it we know we are home. The star was designed by a dear friend's father back in the 1950s as a temporary promotion for the Roanoke Merchants but it became our permanent symbol...some think it is tacky...personally I love it!


I do not complain when it hits over 95 because it is still better than driving down the Mountain in ice and snow. This was taken on December 4, 2010...when it snows I need to be at work Early so snow on workdays makes me quite nervous...


We are looking forward to a long 4 day weekend on Tybee Island... soon.  We have not been back since the first weekend in May.  Hershey will be traveling with us. This will be his first trip and our first time ever vacationing with a pet. We are excited  to see our Paws and Paddles Cottage again...we love our Mountain but we love Savannah and Tybee 2! Will blog about our trip while we are at the Cottage...can't wait...
