It's Ketch-up


 Did you have a great weekend? We hooked up with the daughter and SIL in Virginia where we stayed at an airbnb. 

This is where we stayed.


Don't you love this fan?


 


These guys came wandering across the yard.


Evening.

Saturday morning we went to the Farmer's Market.

 

Cranberry beans

I thought these eggs were so pretty. They went from pale blue to pale green.


Then we went to the Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden. Among the many wonders was a butterfly exhibit.

 





More pictures next week...You've been warned:)

What a grand weekend. Loving the photos. I don't like the egg conformity that we've come to expect. It is a rather strange overhead fan but as long as it works.

Looks like a beautiful visit.

Looks like you had a fabulous weekend. You “camp” facilities are a lot more posh than our “camp” in Newport. The butterflies are beautiful especially the Blue Morpho

I love that fan and your cabin looks nice and cozy. I love butterflies and these are no exception. Hubby and I saw a movie at the theatre! The Las test MI film with Tom Cruise which didn’t disappoint. Glad you had a lovely weekend.

Sandra Cox said...

I loved the fan and the butterflies too. Glad you enjoyed the film, Birgit. Have a great one.
