Bits and Pieces

If you're a reader of my blog, then you will know that glitter is not just glitter to my Hubby, but 'Stripper Glitter'. And if you have ever worked with glitter, then you will know that it gets everywhere; on the floors, on the furniture, on the cats, on you! Well, on a recent Sunday evening trip to our local Walmart, dear Hubby told me (as he walked away toward the Automotive Dept.) ,"You have Stripper Glitter on your cheek. You might want to wipe it off." This was said just loud enough for the small group of people standing nearby to overhear. These people slowly walked away. All the while giving me the strangest looks. I know Hubby was chuckling all the way to the other side of the store. Never a dull moment at my house!

Overheard recently in a restaurant....
"I don't mind if he cross-dresses, but at least he could cross-dress his age!"

And for everyone who is awaiting Autumn....... It's not too far away.

I fond this clump of leaves recently on a drive through the countryside.


And these leaves are on some Sweetgum Trees in my yard.

Bridges

Hubby came across this while surfing one day and I thought I would share it with you. It is a blog about a tree in India whose roots are used to make a living bridge. Very interesting! Click here to check it out!

And speaking of bridges, I thought I would share this photo with you of the new bridge which is being built across the Hoover Dam. Thanks Becky for sending it to me. Isn't it incredible!?
