Yes, the 4th of July is right around the corner, and I always try to share some good ole red, white, and blue.
Enjoy!
charming antique wooden skittles
mostly white with just a touch of red and blue
a unique flag, made with old trim
a tasty dessert and in patriotic colors, too
faded glory
She loved her starch. Only a big bottle would do.
Yes, Virginia, there is an Anne of Green Gables.
He was a grumpy old cuss.

I especially like the Skittles!! Have you ever been to Eureka California? Lots of old Victorian neighborhoods still in the state of interesting decrepitude and decay! Pretty much untouched and ungentrified as yet. Recommend Vlog on YouTube The Nostalgia Zone.
Thanks, Charles! I’d love to be able to find a set of skittles. I have never been to Eureka, CA but I’ve visited San Diego, San Francisco and San Bernardino (all separate trips over the years). I will definitely look them up on YouTube. You may see one of their videos on a future Friday Favorites.
