Shop Taking a Break

The shop is taking a break and 

will be open again on July 8th.

We hope you have a safe 

and happy 4th of July.

When we open again on July 8th 

we will have Patina style props 

for renting for special occasions.

We're very excited about this 

and hope you are too.

longing for the mountains...

sitting here reminded how to stop and relax... patio waterfall at Taggerts grill in Taggert

*just past Morgan

for atmosphere, cleanliness etc. I give it an A.

summer flowers...eye candy

tucked in the lush mountain greenery.

Mr. and Mrs. Peacock lazily strut around

their territory...they are quite the friendly pair.

I'd been told about Taggart's grill for years

from you the customer.

I just didn't take "time out" to go.

I give it another A...on the food,

it's just all so good and priced just right.

For sure I'll go back for the beer batter fries...

(this is halibut in a soft pita bread)

my goodness, where have I been?

I don't think there is anything you could order

that you wouldn't love.

One dessert (okay, we tried the carrot cake) it's

big enough for 4.

you'll thank me for this recommendation

and I thank many of you for reminding me

of Taggerts.

Then onto Sundance...cause I really miss our cabin

(parents sold it last fall).

There's a vintage flair at the general store

and deli.

Before sundance how can you not shop the

outlets in Park city???

Our strong drinks of brewed root beer!

a river does run through it...

well, it was a babbling creek, which we loved

listening to it babble down the mountain

all night long.

This is one of the two restaurants

just so you get the general feel of Sundance.

Of course there is a ski tram.

Customer service is excellent.

If you check the rates, the weekdays seem

to be the least expensive and less busy.

(june is an "off season month too).

It was so peaceful and quiet.

Just what we were longing for.

And your only 20 mins. from Provo

if you like shopping etc.

I love to try new things...

now feel free to share what you have

been doing...

white chippy victorian wicker. fresh white painted frames, galvanized. lacy.

rusty metal tubs, tattered heirlooms. blue ice cream bucket memories.

and things for owning.

Our sons family moved out this past weekend after being here 10 months,

they saved a nice amount to get themselves into a lovely home

just right for them.

(thank goodness they are in the same town 10 mins. away)

Doggy Kia was the last to go...

we will miss them.....and just maybe the doggy too.

It's really quiet.

Not sure we love that.

I'd much rather see the cutest 2 year olds smiley face

and listen to him learn how to talk,

and watch him learn new things and even throw tantrums and scream.

(yes screaming is cute when it's not your own child)

Plus listening to a 10 year olds...

bounce .bounce .bounce the basketball

hour upon hour

and rolling my eyes at that fake wrestling he loves so much,

looking at his face in a video game and watching favorite tv shows together

going to movies and burger bar...

than peace and quiet every day.

But that's how life is...

and we become empty nesters ONCE AGAIN.

With 40 years of marriage sneaking up on us.

I loved my beautiful, most pleasant, patient daughter in law

who cleaned up the kitchen and more after us,

and enjoyed learning who she is,

I learned alot from her,

she is a gift to our family.

We will not miss our sons:

lots of cheese, ice cream, cokes, chips, bags of candy,

pizza's,  hot dogs & hamburgers...you get it, cause I can go on and on!

Heaven help him...

cause I can't!

Now there's a good chance we can get back to some weight loss!

hallelujiah

the temptation is gone, right???

fathers day 2013

a day with my father 2013

85 yrs old

there is a house and yard full of their 5 children with their children

and their children...

and that's what he wanted for Fathers day...

a chicken barbeque.

still making his rock pictures

sitting at a rock machine hour upon hour when it's too hot to be outside,

never wasting a minute

life's to precious to him

and creates each rock to make a design.

now that's "rock love" and patience.

Enjoy the dog days of summer, your family 

GO GRAB A COOLER!

Here a prop. There a prop.

Prop #1

can you tell what it is?

It WAS the cutest wheelbarrow ever made picket fence style.

Mr. Prop-rietor wanted to make it sturdy for your renting of it,

and has now placed a ton of screws so it will hold up for some time.

Prop #2

This chair doesn't stand alone, it has 3 sisters

and a huge round glass roses table to match.

You can rent one... or the whole family.

Prop # 3

Large wooden birdcage

Prop out your wedding displays etc. with lots of vintage white.

With a  nice display inside, people placing money envelopes into,

sure to make an exciting look.

It's not just Any birdcage...

we do VINTAGE prop rentals

it has brass door knobs for it's feet.

Props # 4

vintage white sewing machine drawers

open and closed

openings in the top for florals etc,

make for some pretty display pieces.

Prop #5

Antique etched mirror in the making

center will be a pin board.

For once I showed a "before" photo!

Prop #6

French chippy paint window

working to bring it in too.

There's  more in the shop lined up on the counter runway.

So why you're thinking of what to do with some of these Prop pieces...

we will be thinking of the Prop-er way to rent them out to you!
