The Pole and the Lantern

Back several months ago I posted
this pic below~
 
 
My brother had this out at his house
in his recycle metal pile. He found it on
the side of the road to be thrown away.
 
I have been looking at it for years wanting
it but I was kind of waiting to see what
he was going to do with it....
 
Finally I asked could I have it and
I promised to recycle ......or
better yet, reuse it!
 
I thought maybe it would make an
awesome lamp holding a solar light
to put in the back yard....
 
But how would I do that.
I have been looking for one
of these that I thought was
the perfect size.

 
Found this at Ole Time Pottery today
at lunch time.
$19.99.
 
Now to figure out how to attach it.
I have some ideas so this
post will be continued yet again!
 
Stay tuned.
Thanks for stopping in,
Pam

The Rest of Today

After my trip to town today,  visit with the doc, stopping  and picking up breakfast I  headed home.  I had dropped Dakota off at mom's for the day. He was going  to spend the day  playing with Klohe and Cheyenne. While he was hanging at mom's Lily and I chilled all day.  So much to do but I can't seem to get it in gear. Later....I had an apt for a hair cut. But I left out early to stop  at the  Mystic Heart. I picked up some healing stones there.  Entering the store I read this sign... haha Then while in there I saw this sign. From there I headed to see  Kelley, my hair stylist. This is what I was shooting for. Course, it will look different on  me due to hair color and  texture of hair.  I am good with it. I got to Heads Up a bit early  so Kelley still had a young boy she was working on and his dad after h...

Swollen Hand and Leipers Fork

Wasp sting update~ I made an apt to go  to Fast Pace on Sunday, then canceled.  I wanted to give it one  more day. I did ice  off and on all day and  did Benadryl cream, Sunday night, swelling  is going down. This was Sunday  morning. This in is this  morning. Never been so happy to  see my ugly veins before! YAY L eipers Fork, TN. Cool little place about 30 mins from the house. I have been here, years ago but the other day, I wanted to get out, so I picked  Leiper's Fork.  Of course, since I love old  cars I had to stop and take pics of this one. Then off I went,  camera around my neck and ready for pics. This is one of the local  gallery.  Isn't that yellow door cute? Cool door with all the  details on it. I also love the old door knobs on these old doors. I thought this would  stand out in a pic as B&W. Again, the detail, down to  the very knob itself. This is a store in the mist of about ei...
