My sister makes some beautiful beaded jewelry. In fact , she used to own a bead store and even took a class to learn how to blow her own glass beads.
Rich...that's one of those things I always wante to try. The handmade jewelry is really the rage especially with handblown beads
Joan, I'm sorry to hear about the weather, we've been VERY lucky! At least your lovely town provides lots of fun things to do.
Carole...glad you haven't gone TOTALLY silent...we'd miss your voice!
Hi Joan, You forgot about just Walking in the Rain, A little dance here and a swing on the lamp post and popping the umbrella. Rainy Days and Mondays, no longer get me down. Love the Post! It actually brought back some memories along the lines of what I said, :-)
There's always something going on around there. And there is an abundance of things to see and do - even if it's raining. One could always go sit by the river and try to count the raindrops as they hit. We did that as kids and would forget that we were getting soaked because we were so engrossed in the count!
Boy -- I am really getting tired of the RAIN! I hope we get some sun before we start into winter again. After a record breaking snow fall -- I was hoping we would have a nice warm summer -- no way! I guess we can take advantage of these free events.
Hi William...I can just picture you (and Gene Kelly) doing that! LOL
Carol...count the raindrops? Can honestly say that's a new one on me!
I think we all are Joan...it makes you want to stay in bed and sleep! And nothing ever drys!! The sun is out right now but there is a flood watch....go figure! A little girl got killed in the flooding in Plymouth last night!
