Still workin' on 'The Novel'. The Rabbit Hole will be OPEN Feb. 10 - 12, 10 -3!! 101 Williams Blvd. Fairfax, Iowa. {The Building next to The '49 Ford Panel Truck}
Spent a little more time today... workin' on 'The Novel'.
oh my.
I, can only take small doses of the memories.
; )
Been sorting through the New Arrivals, today...as well.
<3
Love...Love...Love...
the tiny book, I found in Kentucky.
: )
"To Walter... in Memory of Mr. fairy tale days.
"Long ago"

<3
Haven't been back to The Rabbit Hole, for sometime.
It'll be Good, to find my way back.
It... always welcomes me Home.
: )
Love to Ya...
Prayers, for All.

❤️
She's very destructive.
😉
Somehow, I Admire Her Tenacity.
❤️
Priceless.
Peanut... has nearly destroyed our early, wool rug.
I'll have to put That, on IDOT, and... give Peanut...a Pass.
<3
The Flooding, in this beautiful room, because of IDOT, has soiled the beautiful Rug, over, and over. Just in the corners, where I couldn't save it.
Peanut... has a better 'nose'.
She... 'Smell's' The Smelly...Smells, that Smell... far more than I could.
Any, human... could.
May God Bless... IDOT, and Fairfax, Iowa... City Hall.
and...
the Attorney's who represent them.
Bless... their hearts.
<3
{We...
are
Paying for Them.
All. }
At the end of the day...
in my opinion...
It's about The Soulfulness.

Turn the Page.
I've been trying to write about 'Nashville', it's gonna be quite...a story.
Heart of Country... in Nashville, at The Opryland, was quite a 'Story'...over the years, for this...
simply...
'Iowa Girl'.
It was the most... grueling event, I've ever had to deal with.
: )
Loved...Every Painful Moment.
<3
I've been scrolling back over the years, many...of my posts, here...on Blogger.
Oh...my.
What a Ride.
This...little blog, is truly... my Diary.
Brings me to tears... reading through it.
oh my.
I've never looked back, like I have...today, trying to find images...of 'Nashville'.
'Heart'.
Thought... I could whip a post together, rather... quickly, concerning all of this.
I, can't.
The 'Heart'...
'Nashville', story...
is more like a Novel.
I'm workin' on it.
It's a difficult journey.
Love...to Ya.
Prayers, for All.

{When Allyson, and I... pulled in, from Nashville, yesterday afternoon, it felt so good to be Home.
<3
then...
I looked around.
'This'...isn't 'Home'...anymore.
Fairfax, Iowa... City Hall, and IDOT {Iowa Department of Transportation } and Their Attorneys representing 'Them', that... 'we', all pay for...have made it very Clear.
'Home'...
isn't
'Home'.
Bless their hearts.
When 'Josey Wales'...gives me the Green Light... I'll be posting the Letter, from Iowa's Attorney General, to us. ; ) I.. believe... you'll find it 'interesting'. I...sure did. }

Home.
Home.
: )
Allyson, and I...stopped at my Favorite...
Shop, in Hannibal, Missouri...
on the way.
: )
Gordon... is Amazing.
He's an Incredible Artist, and does Restoration work, on Very Important Paintings.
He's So...incredibly knowledgeable concerning Early Artwork, and Early Pieces.
So Enjoy visiting his 'Rabbit Hole'.
I've admired the above Crazy Quilt, for years...that Gordon was willing to part with, today.
: )
Oh My.
<3
Always, Always... find The Unusual...
at Gordon's.
; )
GLAD to be Home!!!
Miss. Peanut, was Happy...to See Me!!!
<3
The Feeling is Mutual!!
; )
It's Fun...to get away, but...
like Dorothy said...
"There's No Place Like 'Home'."
Received a call... en-route, this morning.
May... be driving a Truck to Daytona...for a Dear Friend, in a couple of weeks.
{Can't let Miss. Peanut hear that.
Eeeek.
Peanut doesn't like it, when Mama leaves. : ( }
So Incredibly Grateful...to Pal, Allyson, for taking me with...on this Amazing Southern Run.
<3
She's... Truly, an Angel.
<3
Love to Ya...
Prayer, for All.

{Allyson told me, on the way Home, today... how she enjoys travelling with me.
{Hahahahaha!
Smokin'... Long Island Ice Tea Drinkin'...Snorin'...and All!!!}
: ) : ) : )
I...reminded Allyson, again....
I...ahhhhh, still... am expecting 'Royalties'...
when She Publishes her Book!!!
: ) : ) : ) }
<3
Fast Lane...
Life... in the
'Fast Lane'.
; )
Took the above images, in Nashville, the other evening.
; )
Traffic, was Insane.
oh...my.
Leaving St. Louis this morning.
St. Louis traffic, is also difficult, at certain times of the day.
Allyson LOVES to drive, so... she's been at the wheel the entire trip.
I...drive a little differently, than Allyson.
I pick a lane... and Fly.
Allyson, is much more cautious.
<3
{Probably how we've survived thus far. ; ) }
Have MUCH...to get caught up, and Done... when I get back to The Rabbit Hole.
It's So Wonderful... slippin' away, but... gettin' caught up, is always a challenge.
So Worth...the Challenge.
: )
Great Memories, always...
when Allyson invites me to join her.
Grateful.
<3
We're letting the 'Mad House' on the St. Louis Interstates, get where they are Rushing to this morning,
then...
we'll beat feet...
HOME!!
; )
Love to Ya...
Prayers, for All.

{Loaded the above post, from my phone. Couldn't get the hotel's wifi to connect, tonight.
; )
Finally...got Help...from The Sweet Gal, at the front desk, and... someone...from Far, Far... away.
<3
We finally got it connected, by then... told The Sweet Gal, I needed to go outside, and Smoke, or...
Slash my Wrists.
: )
I'm ready to be Home.
Seems, I don't do well... away from 'The Rabbit Hole'.}
