This old glass fly catcher has been sitting around at the lake house
with a piece of faux ivy trailing out of it
for probably eight or ten years.
I am pretty sure that I found it at Brimfield one year
while shopping the markets with my girlfriend Paula.
I rinsed the dust off her this morning
and plucked a pretty pink cone flower to adorn her.
Isn't she pretty?
:)
A sign on the bulletin board in the market yesterday announced:
Hot showers at the Fire House
Bring your own towel
Luckily though...our electricity was restored last evening!
...earlier than expected...thank goodness!
It felt so good to have a hot shower before bed last night.
It's the little things!
:)

My sister had one of these and didn't know what is was. Wish I had asked her for it before she passed away. My BIL wouldn't have kept it. Oh well. Thanks for sharing the great pics!
She is pretty!
