I love to blog. It keeps me in touch. I love to use my camera...still learning how. I love sharing pictures of our yard and all the things in it. So we have the birth of yet another blog...Trash Pickin' Treasures. I hope to keep track of trash pickin' trips and then what we end up doing with the stuff that we pick. I plan to make this blog look like something all by myself...can't afford for a professional to do it. It will be short and sweet.
So the first treasure I want to share actually is two. Mark and I have been looking for grinding stones for a long time. I have asked everyone when they are out to be looking for them. One day my Dad calls to tell me he has found one at an old house close to his house. One problem...he can't lift it. I said don't lift it...sit on it until I can get there! Really, he had to get some help and they dropped it off in his driveway. The stone made its way to Cincinnati and its new home is right by the front door. The second find was actually a trip to see the lot on the lake. My nephew, Dustin, and Emmy hiked to the top of the hill and over. They brought back rocks from the summit. So I am using the rocks as a brace for the grinding stone that is set in between lots of little geranium plants.

I can imagine that you are cracking up...thinking 'are these people crazy!' You won't be the first to think that. Let us know what you thought was a really cool idea...and maybe share some of your own ideas...where do you think we come up with all this cool stuff?
