thought i'd jus' put the 'words' here .. you can see all the photos on my 'true friends' list.
(whooops .. noticed that these are all caps .. cuz' i copied it straight from my 'true friends' mailing). if it's tooooo hard to read .. jus' skip on down. xoxo i often send those messages in all lower or all caps.
++++++++++++++++++
HAD A WONDEROUSLY FUN DAY YESTERDAY .. JUS' VISITING TOWN!
STARTED OFF BY HAVING MY HAIR 'DONE'. WUZ GONNA' GO 'BROWN' AGAIN TO MATCH MY ROOTS .. BUT CHICKENED OUT .. AND HAD RED 'STREAKS' (MORE CONCISELY, BLOBS) PUT IN THROUGHOUT MY 'HO YALLER' .. KINDA' LOOKS LIKE DRIED BLOOD!
WELL, TRUS' ME . .I'VE DONE MORE DAMAGE THAN THAT IN THE PAST!
THEN HEADED FOR TOWN .. STOPPED AT LUCY'S FOR LUNCH .. HAD A FASCINATING CONVERSATION WITH SUSAN ALL ABOUT A 'MURDER' THAT HAPPENED IN LOUISVILLE YEARS AGO .. AND THE GUY GOT OFF!!! THERE WAS A BOOK WRITTEN ABOUT IT CALLED: 'DOUBLE JEOPARDY' . I'M GONNA' SEE IF I CAN FIND IT. BUT THEN .. MAYBE NOT .. I THINK I'D RATHER MAKE DOLLIES!
AFTER A YUMMY LUNCH .. I AMBLED NEXT DOOR TO THE PLAID PEACOCK TO SEE THE YA-YA'S. (MIMI AND PEACHES WERE THERE) .. AFTER SOME FUN GOSSIP AND GIGGLING .. I ROAMED AROUND THE STORE TO TAKE PHOTOS .. IT IS SUCH A DARLING SHOPPE .. WE ARE SO VERY BLESSED TO HAVE THIS IN OUR LITTLE TOWN. (I GOT SOFIA THE 'MOST ADORABLE' LITTLE 'FLOWER PRESS' .. IN A SWEET BOX. I'LL TAKE A PICTURE OF IT SOON AND POST IT!)
I LOVE THEIR SPRING 'BUNNY' .. WHO SITS IN THEIR WINDOW EACH EASTER. HE HAD HOPPED TO THE BACK ROOM BY THE TIME I FOUND HIM!
'PEACHES' (PEGGY JONES) CREATES THESE
GREAT OLDE PHOTOS ON WOOD. SHE HAS
BOXES AND PICTURES AND NAPKIN RINGS
WITH MOSTLY PICTURES OF HISTORIC GREENSBURG
THAT SHE HAS TAKEN. I HAVE HER ABRAHAM LINCOLN,
GLOVERS' STATION, THE OLDE DEPOT, OUR OLDE
COURTHOUSE AND 'BE STILL MY HEART' .. SHE TOOK SOME
PHOTOS OF 'FREEDOM VALLEY FARM' AND FILLED EVERY SIDE OF
A CUTE BLACK BOX WITH THEM. EVERYONE IN GREEN COUNTY
SHOULD HAVE A COLLECTION OF THESE! HMMMMMMM??? DO I
HAVE THE JEREMIAH ABEL CABIN?
I DO HAVE A BEAUTIFUL PAINTING SHE DID OF THE "ja" CABIN!!!
MY HERO .. HONEST ABE! I HAVE QUITE A WONDERFUL COLLECTION OF
OLDE BOOKS ABOUT LINCOLN.
THIS IS OUR 'OLDE TRAIN DEPOT'!
THESE GURLZ FIND THE BEST KENTUCKY CRAFTSMEN/WOMEN ..
AND FEATURE THEIR WORK IN THE PLAID PEACOCK.
HERE IS SOME GREAT POTTERY ..
I LOVE THIS LITTLE SIGN!!!
AND HOW PRECIOUS IS THIS!!!!!!
I GOT THIS FOR OUR NEW GRAND-BABY .. IT MAKES
FOUR SOUNDS .. THE TWO I LOVE THE MOST ARE
A 'MOTHER'S HEARTBEAT' AND 'WHALES SINGING!
I 'THINK' THE OTHERS ARE GENTLE WAVES AND SOFT BREEZES.
O.K. ... LOVE THIS ONE TOOOOOOO!!!!
ADORABLE DRAGON .. AND LOOK AT THOSE CUTE
BATH TOWELS .. AND 'ANYTHING PRINCESS' STEALS
MY HEART. THESE LADIES HAVE SUCH AN 'EYE' FOR
GETTING BEAUTIFUL GIFTS!
THEY ALSO HAVE THE SWEETEST BOOKS .. HOW TRUE THIS ONE IS!
A MUST-HAVE FOR EVERYONE WHO HAS AN ADOPTED CHILD!
AND THOSE CUPCAKES LOOK YUMMY ENOUGH TO GOBBLE DOWN!
I ALWAYS HEAD FOR THEIR MORE 'PRIM' SECTION TOO!
I HAVE THE 'I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU' SIGN!
A FAV THAT I ALSO HEAD FOR .. IS THE HAND-DYED SILK SCARVES
CREATED BY A 'KENTUCKY WOMAN' .. AREN'T THESE YUMMY! WHEN THE
FARMGIRLS CAME FOR A VISIT TO FREEDOM VALLEY RECENTLY, THE SURPRIZED
ME WITH MY MOS' FAVORITE ONE. (IT WAS A LITTLE 'WET' CUZ' I DROOLED ON IT
EVERY TIME I VISITED THE PEACOCK!) THANK YOU SWEET FRIENDS!
LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS .. AND IF IT HADN'T ALREADY
BEEN ADOPTED (BY CATHY COBBLESTONE) .. I'D HAVE
IT IN THE BACK OF MY VAN HEADED FOR TOLEDO!
