Wheat Stacks.
No better place to relax,
than just a wheat field,
with stacks of wheat.
The smells,
the hard work,
still turning in the air.
A place all people should come to know,
and love,
it may not be the romance of some exotic beach,
tucked away on a far away private island,
its some where close by,
go and learn the beauty,
of a near by wheat field with,
(Wheat Stacks).

When VHS first came out, Disney made limited releases of all the Classics. Most were available for only one year and people eagerly awaited the next release. Fast forward 15 years. VHS was obsolete, those eagerly sought tapes were in thrift stores at a dollar apiece. That's when my grandchildren were little!!!! A trip to the thrift store and....Disney Magic for two little ones at Grandpa's house!!!!!

South Stack Rock lies separated from Holyhead Island by 30 metres of turbulent sea, surging to and fro in continuous motion. The coastline from the breakwater and around the south western shore is made of large granite cliffs rising sheer from the sea to 60 metres.
Origins
South Stack Lighthouse was first envisaged in 1665 when a petition for a patent to erect the lighthouse was presented to Charles II. The patent was not granted and it was not until 9 February 1809 that the first light appeared to mark the rock. The lighthouse was designed by Trinity House surveyor Daniel Alexander and originally fitted with Argand oil lamps and reflectors. Around 1840 a railway was installed by means of which a lantern with a subsidiary light could be lowered down the cliff to sea level when fog obscured the main light.
On 25 October 1859 it is said that the most severe storm of the century occurred, known as the 'Royal Charter' gale; and on that and the following day over 200 vessels were either driven ashore or totally wrecked with the loss of 800 lives.The steamship Royal Charter was among these, sinking within yards of help with the loss of almost 500 passengers and crew.
In the mid 1870s the lantern and lighting apparatus was replaced by a new lantern. In 1909 an early form of incandescent light was installed and in 1927 this was replaced by a more modern form of incandescent mantle burner. The station was electrified in 1938.
Automation
On 12 September 1984 the lighthouse was automated and the keepers withdrawn. The lighthouse is now monitored and controlled from Trinity House’s Planning Centre in Harwich, Essex.

We are SO. BUSY. Not only are we busy rescuing puppies, dealing with our huge garden, planning/packing for our honeymoon, getting ready for out of town company, getting ready to see friends and family (and introduce them!), planning a wedding (with loads of hitches including a dress mishap, centerpieces and flowers mishap, cake mishap... you know, the big stuff!), but we are totally rearranging the furniture in the house!!
This is because...
drum roll, please...
for my wedding gift...
Robby go me...
a new library!!
I am the luckiest girl in the whole world.
Of course, they couldn't hold it until after the wedding and they were a week late in delivering it, meaning i have to deal with this the week of the wedding. So Monday T and i had to move the furniture away from our bookcase (this incudes an entire dollhouse that had to be packed up and a new space found for, a tower of dollhouse making supplies, (and i do mean tower) a footstool, a chair, my dried herbs stuff, lots of books, a lamp, a chair, and so much more...) Then we had to take all the books and such off of our old bookcase, move it into another room, make room in that room for it (meaning we had to move stuff to another room which also had to be rearranged to make room). Whew!!
So here is where we stored the books for 24 hours, b/c my library is so beautiful i couldn't bear to put stuff onto it...

The Joy of Love/Love to Hate
We get a lot of catalogs in the mail along with a couple of magazines. My subscription, I don't intend on renewing, and the other was a gimme for another magazine that was discontinued. My husband gets The Economist and reads it cover to cover. Mine sit around the house for months before I finally read them all and am ready to relinquish them to the recycling pile. My husband is usually done with his in a couple of days and off it goes. He can't stand the fact that I won't let him recycle my catalogs and magazines until I'm ready. I often catch him in the act of getting rid of them, only to save them from impending doom. And even though he hates my stacks around the house, he still lets me have them beyond the "Two-Month" Rule.
I stacked these myself! I know it looks simple haha but for some reason I lose myself in it when I balance rocks. I hope it only took me a few minutes but I might have been there for half an hour and not noticed the time pass!
The Anaconda Smelter Stack is 585 feet (178.3 m) tall. It consists of a brick chimney (555 ft, 169.2 m tall) and a concrete foundation (30 ft, 9.1 m). Though no longer in use, it is the tallest surviving brick masonry structure in the world.
