My wife and I were out shopping and we found this top we both liked. She bought it for me but we will probably share it.
i have SO many... i really want to get some sort of display unit for them... i finally found something that would work -- cases intended to display shot glasses -- but, it'd cost like $250.... so, i'm not planning to buy one right at this moment...
this isn't every lala mini... i know i'm missing some of the ones that come with playsets.... but i think i have all of the ones that were ever sold individually....
Hand painted plates done in Norwegian rosemal'ing by folk artist Cathy Koball of Grand Meadow, Minnessota, an old German beer stein, and a hand carved Ainu bear from Hokkaido, Japan.
A photo to brighten me up after this mornings rain (much needed). Unsure of the Bee's name but liked the collection of pollen from my sunflowers on it's face
Hoodoos in the Bryce Canyon area are formed by two weathering processes that continuously work together in eroding the edges of the Paunsaugunt Plateau. The primary weathering force at Bryce Canyon is frost wedging where there are over 200 freeze/thaw cycles each year. In the winter, melting snow, in the form of water, seeps into the cracks and freezes at night. When water freezes it expands by almost 10%, gradually prying open cracks, making them ever wider.
Hoodoo formation
In addition to frost wedging, what little rain falls in the area also sculpts the hoodoos. Although the Bryce Canyon region is far from major sources of atmospheric pollution, rainfall there is nevertheless slightly acidic. This weak carbonic acid can slowly dissolve limestone grain by grain. It is this process that rounds the edges of hoodoos and gives them their lumpy and bulging profiles. Where internal mudstone and siltstone layers interrupt the limestone, the rock will be more resistant to the chemical weathering because of the comparative lack of limestone. Many of the more durable hoodoos are capped with a type of magnesium-rich limestone called dolomite. Dolomite, being fortified by the mineral magnesium, dissolves at a much slower rate, and consequently protects the weaker limestone underneath it in the same way a construction worker is protected by his/her hardhat.
Rain is also the chief source of erosion (the actual removal of the debris). In the summer, monsoon type rainstorms travel through the Bryce Canyon region bringing short duration high intensity rain. --from Wikipedia

Routinely I travel to a mix of locations sourcing pieces to curate the weekly Allen Co. collection; a sweater here, a dress there, etc., and it not often that I happen upon a preexisting one. These floral scarves were such an assemblage I discovered this weekend; all sort of matching but with their own botanic distinction. I intended to list them as a collection, but thought each one could find a befitting new owner. All are available in my shop; claim your favorite!
This is the Post Box at Swansea's Fairwood Airport outside SkyDive Swansea. I thought it was no longer in use until I saw a postman emptying it on the day of the Skydive.
I think my neighbors think I am completely bonkers. I was putting all of these mugs on a table on my front porch to take the photo. I can't get good light inside. People kept walking by and staring.
