I love snow!

Thanks to Winter storm, Falco, we received 

over 20 inches of snow this week 

so I just had to share some 

the beauty with you. 

Love the Seussical hats on the lampposts

 

We love our forest!!!!

The deck is full of snow!

No grilling tonight.

Yes, that's my mailbox ~ no stick on numbers for me.  lol

Published again!

Snuggled in with my morning coffee reading the latest edition of

 Teddy Bear and Friends and who do I see? 

Miss Eugenia smiling back at me. 

Thank-you Teddy Bear and Friends!

Holiday Parade on the Midcoast

This weekend, Mr. Cobblestone and I 

attended the Holiday Parade 

in a neighboring community.  

Lobster Trap Tree

It was pretty much what we expected, and 

although it was advertised as running from 6-8pm, 

the actual parade lasted only 20 minutes.  

There were a number of floats and 

er, um, holiday vehicles?

Now ~ are those candy canes or fish hooks?

 

And of course, this being the  midcoast of Maine 

it featured not only the reigning Sea Goddess, 

but also the Blueberry Queen as well.

Of course Santa was there too!

All in all it was a rather fun evening, 

but as someone who attended the 

Macy's parade in NYC, 

I gotta tell you, things are a bit different here.  

Would you ever see a car parked along

 the parade route in New York?

If you need some assistance, please do not hesitate to email me.

The first is the British NTBAA Photo Contest
