Tinker Around

Welcome to my blog. It is full of basic projects and tutorials for things that I have done and feel like others out there would benefit from learning too. Be sure to take time to leave me a comment. Thanx, Pam

Valley House Gallery

This month, I want to share some pictures from a free gallery right here in our area.  I think that it is one of the best kept secrets around.  Hubby took me one day for a "date day".  It is small, but there is also an outdoor sculpture garden that you can spend as long as you want to walking around.  They will even let you bring in a picnic and stuff, as long as you clean up after yourself.  Oh, also, bring some bug spray and know that the restroom is back up at the main building.   When you pull into the drive, you want to go to the first building on the left... you may not go into the other two buildings as they are both private areas.

 Let's go on inside and see who was showing when we went.




















 Now, we will head outside to the sculpture gardens.  There around the back of this main house, where the owner still resides and works from time to time.






 














As you can see, it is a very beautiful place to visit.  I hope that you can go and visit sometime, we had a lot of fun and I hope that you will too!

I hope to be back sooner than later.  We have had a lot happen in the past month, when it isn't so raw ... I hope to be able to share and do a tribute to my mom.
