In my travels , Is that a gnome?

Category: GARDEN ROOMS | Posted: Tue Apr 10, 2007 8:52 pm

This week end i found one ....a gnome ,yup..for 10.00 at Artichoke Annie's in columbia, found it coming back home. Saturday leaving for piedmont, we stoped there and i found a wicker chair (again) for 25.00,no paint on it at all,very dull gray looking. Couldnt take it then because the truck was full and said i'd pay for it now,pick it up on the way back.Ron also found more lightening rods(no glass balls) for them.While there ,there sat 2 gnomes and i liked one of them and took it home. The other object in pic i got at Yellow Moon,i really like it.I'll find a home for both outside somewhere in the flower gardens when the weather gets nice.I also found some old garden tools that saturday at Artichoke Annie's,they were only 3 and 4.00 each.Oh i love to find deals like that! I see them alot for 18.00 to 20.00,thats too high!!..
Oh and i also found a bunch of country living garden magazines and bhgardens(country gardens) for only 50 cents(bought 17 of them)lol// .Yes im a sucker for a pretty garden magazine(front covers get me all the time!

some new treasures

mom and dad on easter.

Oh no gnome fever is spreading!!! LOL I'm still holding out as I really don't like garden gnomes - well except for our very own gnome that is.

I love the photograph of your parents Kat.

Hello fellow Missourian. I see that you like garden magazines. Have you ever seen Birds and Blooms magazine? If not, I would be glad to send you some. I have several of them. No advertisements, just beautiful pictures of the outdoors. I also liked the picture of your mom and dad. Have a great day, and God bless you......Mary

I love the pictures Kat.I do like gnomes.We have a truck that goes to Piedmont about once a week sometimes twice.
I think the name where we go is Speciality Brands.Monterey Mushroom trucks.
