Beautiful view across the valley late this afternoon...Gum surgery yesterday... yuck. But my sister came to visit today. Yey. I'm astounded about the pace of this month. I think October will be calmer. I miss visiting all of you. Thank you for stopping by here!

Radios!

Fun, vintage ones. At auction in Australia...I love that technology has made it possible for me to see these so easily. Aren't they cool? We still have such a full schedule here. I hope to be back to more regular posts soon. I hope you are doing so well.

Love This

Happy weekend! Sorry I haven't been here. Busy. Have you seen Megan Mullally's home in the September Elle Decor? I love pretty much everything about it...Especially the bedroom, which is inspiring me to tinker a bit in mine.and certainly this pool and this view would be awfully nice, too...I hope your time off these next couple of days is really beautiful!

Weekend Auction Finds

Hi. Happy long weekend (in the US). I've been browsing around some auctions, which ramp up in September, and have found a few pretty things from this week's events...Some delicate pocket watches, a couple of horses (I always fall for the weathervanes), a mint julep cup (always love these, too), and some very fun, feminine, intricate headboards. I hope your having a beautiful few days off.

Pieces are from from Garth (weathervane), Charlton (watches and cup), and Treadway (art by Walter Quirt and headboards).

Dreaming of...

Morocco. Marrakesh, really. La Mamounia, to be exact. Why? Because I'd like to rebel against the schedules and the ninth months of school (not my own, my child's) to come. So I'm looking at these...gorgeous images of La Mamounia. I was able to visit Marrakesh and stay in this magnificent hotel with my parents in the late '70s. It's been renovated back to it's original glory, which we experienced back then. We will take Eddie there someday, and tour the country the way I did when I was a child. And we'll purposefully miss school to do it!
I hope you have a beautiful long weekend.
