Then we hit the road for 6 weeks, looking for a place where we might like to settle. We're now in northeast Oregon, in a leased apartment while we consider a permanent home. My photo header is actually a photograph I took of our friend's place in Allenspark, CO. It's a restaurant, actually, but she has the most wonderful taste, and always has a summer garden in front. The restaurant is an old inn that has a very cottagey look. So that's why I used it for my blog. Thanks for visiting. :)Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12854211710203164265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6915998197494794177.post-60656108018286706932013-11-01T18:01:23.536-07:002013-11-01T18:01:23.536-07:00Haha.
