Well, my present "blog-look," may not be purrrrfect. But I am more pleased with it. I'm kind of "caught between a rock and a hard place." Since I want an Autumn look/feel here. But most of the free backgrounds I find, are tooooooooooo brighttttttttt or busssssssssy looking, to me. But the free Background I have, though a pretty and soft color, is kind of dullllllllllllllllll looking, to me. -grin-
Yup, "Auntie" is never satisfied!!! ,-))))
Plus, "Auntie" should get-a-move-on and cover that little shade, on that little mantle ambiance lamp! "Get a move on, Auntie!!!" There is a HOLE in it, for "Pete's Sakes"! ~~~ Hmmmmm, where did that 'saying' come from?????? "For Pete's Sake(s)!" It is meant to be a kind of an exasperated saying. But, who was "Pete"??????????
A big house, again. Viewed through a nice gate, even. ~~~ I've really got to get this bunch of Pretty Homes Around My City pics posted, and out of my iPhoto program. I'm forgetting which I've showed and which I have not. I THINK these are for-the-first-time. If not, please forgive. ,-)
-sigh- Betcha' I've shown this one before....... -sigh- It's one, which I have gone by and noticed, more than once. Remember us going by it specifically, to take a pic. But did I already show it? Who knows. :-)
And this may well be, the left side of a porch, already shown... OH, but it does show a Balcony. A kind of a Balcony. And I love balconies. That will be my *excuse* for showing it. ,-)))
And I thank Dear Readers for saying that my pics of pretty homes in my city, are nice. And I fully appreciate all the pretty places in my city, which one can ride around and admire and take pics of. It's lucky, to live in this city. BUT!!!!!!!!
Every area has interesting things! Every town, city, outskirts, edges of town, etc. ~~~ Every one has interesting things, to notice, and appreciate, and take pictures of. ~~~ Just because you haven't noticed any big, gorgeous mansions around your area, please don't think you have nothing to note. ~~~ Please kind-of-open-your-eyes a bit more... ~~~ Notice interesting things, in 'your neck of the woods'. ~~~ And if you choose, please share pics of them, with 'Pretty Blog Land."
Please.... Pretty please.... Pretty please with sugar on it. :-)
Hey, I used to belong to a blog, which offered connection to zillions of other blogs, which featured a 'Pic A Day' of something, in their city, town, etc. "Daily Photos Of My City" That kind of blog(s). Oh sure, some were of Paris, NYC, Venice, etc. But many were from wee, little places, here and there. These people are not afraid to find a daily pic of "something," in their general vicinity. :-)
Anyone can do it. IF they choose to. I know, pics of our particular area, are not what all bloggers want to publicize on the Net. But...... It's a possibility.... Yes? Maybe? Perhaps? Especially when a blogger gets in a *purple funk of I don't have anything to post about.* -moan-moan-moan- ,-)
Oh but yes, we all have something. We all live somewhere. :-)

for petes sake, i did not even see that hole until you mentioned it and i had to scroll back up to find the hole.... love that second house, really love it.
I am always tempted to take photos of the "dumps" in my town hoping that they might show up in a Google search and thereby be ashamed of their properties. That's not a very noble reason for taking photos, though, now is it? We don't have the beautiful homes that your fair city has. Not even close.
Your mantle is looking beautiful I must say and I like this quiet and calm background.
I need to get out and takes pics of a few houses around here before all the flowers are dead :S You can upload your own photos as backgrounds too...did you know that?? :)
I love the mantle -- I'll be working on mine this week. I didn't notice the hole until you pointed it out! What I did notice is the missing spindle on the porch house. With all the beauty there -- flowers and such -- wouldn't you think they'd get a new post? Sorry, that's the Virgo in me!
Peace,
Muff
I am in love with your fall mantle!! I am in serious wanting to decorate for fall mode and with NOTHING to work with! YET! I intend to STUFF the truck and back seat of our car next week with every bit of decorations I can scoop out of our attic at home.
As for the pics of this area....LD and I are about to go off in search of just what's around here! We get today and tomorrow OFF - except for dropping by for a couple of hours to give A&M a chance to nap or go for groceries. No telling what we will find on our excursions!
I didn't notice any hole ... just a very cozy and pretty vignette that has me eager for fall.
Oh, that 2nd house is right up my alley. I love that photo and want to crawl right onto that porch and never leave :D.
You are so right we all do have something to show. I have been inspired by so many different areas through the glimpses I've seen on other people's blogs.
I love exploring my own home town...love seeing yours too...
that is such a cute lamp! i love balconies too!
I like your fall decor. I miss having a fireplace to decorate.There is just something special about decorating a mantle... (sigh)... Don't worry about posting the house pictures for a second time...it's just like when you drive/walk by them you always see something new. Like you my eyes are always open to what is around me. :)
