Layout-100 mile bike ride

Andrew went on his first 100 mile bike ride on August 8. He went by himself, but find a small group of guys to ride with. He rode as far as Dryden with them, then took off on his own because he wanted to go faster. He started out at Marvin Park in Owego, rode to Maine (NY) past Greenwood Park onto Rte 38 into Dryden, then to Candor, then over Straits Corners Road back to Owego (made me tired just typing it!).

He loved it and said he felt like he could go even further!

Layout-Stove

Last week one of the questions at ACOT was what kind of stove do you have; so I decided to make a layout about my stove as it is quite unique. This stove was in our house when we moved in back in 1982; it belonged to my husband's grandmother who owned the house before us. We think it was made between 1930-1940. It is a propane, gas, coal stove. We have to light a match to use the burners, oven and broiler. The door on the right is the stove, the door on the left is the coal burner (the photo on the far left shows the door to the coal burner open). At one time I thought it would be nice to get a new stove until I saw ours on an antique show and decided that this one is perfect for us and our house. This stove is older than me and I am sure it will still be working long after I'm gone.

Layout-Tacky Tourist Crop

Connie Cook always has fun crops and one of them was a Tacky Tourist Crop held at her house. Only her Mom and me showed up; but the 3 of us had a blast! Hate to admit it, but I am the tacky looking one wearing Mickey Mouse ears and khaki shorts along with the ever popular touristy fanny pack!

I created this layout for a summer fun challenge at A Cherry On Top!

Layout-Summer Breeze (Tubing)

Here is a layout I created for an ACOT music challenge. Andrew has always loved tubing, I have always been afraid that he would fall out of the tube (and he has, but luckily he has the life jacket!!).
