Shadow Shot Sunday #162 ~ Seussicle Jr. ~ The Musical





I attended a production of Seussical Jr. put on by our local youth choir.  Though I didn't really know any of the children in this musical, it was still lots of fun.  I've enjoyed Dr. Seuss stories since I was a little kid and I think Seussical Jr. did Theodor Seuss Geisel's memory justice.  The venue for this song and dance fest was our city's new little theatre, The Oyster.  It is an old church (built in 1893) that is in the process of being turned into a theatre and coffee house.  When it is renovated it will be known as The Pearl!  

For more Shadow Shots please dance on over (& maybe even sing!) to our hostess Tracy's blog, Hey Harriet.  Have a great weekend.

love, Cassie

Shadow Shot Sunday #159 ~ From The Eagle Valley Amish Auction



These are a few of the log structures that were on the auction block a few weeks ago.  Meadowlark Log Homes is  the Amish owned company that makes them.  They made our cabin, so I am partial to their type of building.  Their customer service is tops!

For more Shadow Shots or to join in this fun meme, go visit our hostess in Australia, Tracy, at Hey Harriet.  Hope you all are having a good weekend.  Blessings to all who pass this way.

A Few Of My Container Plantings...

 My nasturtium planter.  These are edible, so am anxious for it to flower!
Here I have 3 types of lettuce, parsley, onions & a marigold(which supposedly will fend off certain insects). I put a little iron bunny in here too.  Can you see him peering over the side of the pot?
This is a little grouping of Rosemary, Lavender and Tumbling Tom Tomato. 

 
These are a few of the things I have planted the past few weeks.  I have a lot of pictures of my other containers to regale you with, but I'm posting these particular ones because I dolled up the containers they are in.  Notice the raffia,  lady bugs and did I say raffia?!  I hope LL Cool Joey sees these, as all the bling and decorating that he does inspired me. (Even if in a small, less blingy way!)

Shadow Shot Sunday #158 ~ Sunset Shadows From Our Deck



This is a view from our deck where the sunset was this purple-rose the one day this week that it didn't rain here.  I loved the way the shadows of the pine trees were layered on top of each other as the sunset peeked through.

For more Shadow Shots visit Hey Harriet our host blog from Australia.  Folks from around the world participate in this fun meme.  You might like to join us! Have a great weekend and blessings on all who pass this way.

Misc. Pics From This Weekend


Both of these were taken at the Amish school auction on Saturday.I spent most of my time either eating or snapping ShadowShots, so not really many "regular" photos. The homemade ice cream was delish!
 These fish on poles grace both Libby and Troy, Montana creeks.  Aren't they cool? There are also fabulous gigantic metal sculptures of eagles around Libby. I'll try to remember to get some pics of them next time. 
 
I was inspired to put a few different items on our mantelpiece this weekend.  The cannibal fisher-fish is a favorite of mine. It's his first time on the mantel, so I decided to give him the featured position. I really enjoy fly fishing.  Well, actually, any kind of fishing puts me in 7th heaven.  

 
I am having a heck of a time getting this post laid out properly, so please forgive me if it looks weird.  Blessings on the heads of all who pass this way.  Remember, Jesus loves you most of all!
love from farrr North Idaho,
Cassie

Shadow Shot Sunday #157 ~ Violas


This week I have been purchasing and planting lots of flowers and veggies in my many containers.  I love doing this, but the skin on my hands is a mess.  Oh, and I've also picked up a fungus, ringworm, from somewhere. Probably from the ground. Sheesh.  Well, at least my pooches haven't caught it.  OH, back to my Shadow Shots!  My only granddaughter's name is Viola, so I like to have some pretty little violas around every summer.  Whenever I look at them I am reminded of her. I like that.
 For more Shadow Shot Sunday photos, or to join in the shadowy fun, go visit our hostess, Tracy,  at HeyHarriet. You'll be glad you did. 

Blessings on the heads of all who pass this way. Have a great weekend.

Shadow Shot Sunday #155 ~ Face in the Forest





 
This Forest Face has been in our driveway for about 7 years.  I believe he really looks like he belongs now.  The first 3 pics were taken in the sunny afternoon and the last 2 were taken in the dark of night on Friday. Every time I see Forest Face he brings this to mind:   

This is the forest primeval. The murmuring pines and the hemlocks,
Bearded with moss, and in garments green, indistinct in the twilight,
Stand like Druids of eld...    

For more Shadow Shots, or to join in, please visit our hostess, Tracy, over at HeyHarriet. Talented folks from around the world have fun with this meme. Blessings to all who pass this way.  I hope you're having a good weekend.

love,
Cassie
