A Side Road and a Wrong Turn

When you take a side road and a wrong turn, 
you just never know what you might find. 
In this case, Architectural Antiques. 

Bible Study

Just the seeing the place and I knew it was gonna be a winner.
And even better, the owner - Wayne -  invited me to take pictures. 
How cool is that? 

Snow Birds: Keep the white stuff from sliding off your roof in an avalanche and banging up whatever’s underneath.

This place is like a museum of architectural details. 

Yard Sticks

And some pretty creative use of things. 

Baseball Bat railing spindles

I kept thinking if only I was Joanna Gaines, 
I would have been able to summon up some ideas of what to do with this stuff. 

A ceiling of doors.

Shutters to go with tons of old windows. 

Always More

This was such a cool place. 
Room after room of architectural antiques. 
So if you have an old house, 
you just might find what you need here.

Racing Eyes

I love the look of these blue eyed dogs.
I went to a sled dog event on Saturday
and there were so many blue eyes.


A beauty in white.


Look at the hair on this one,
it reminded me of a lion!




This gal, whose name escapes me,
was the calmest dog ever!
She was enjoying a belly rub
while her hyper cousins were in the races.


She was a visitor, not a racer.
I guess that explains the relaxed temperament.

I did another post on this event here.
All my photos from this gallery can be viewed here.

MUSH!

When I think of sled dogs I think of Alaska, not Pennsylvania.
But guess what?  I found some in Perkasie, Pennsylvania!


Ready...Set....Go!


There was a variety of different races at the event.


And once one dog was taken to get harnessed up,
the others all started getting hyped,
almost like they were saying, "Pick me, pick me!"


After the races $5 would buy you a little ride.


Mush! (Actually, I didn't hear anyone say "Mush.")


Don't you just love this hat?


It was the first time this event was held. 
It would be fun if they have it again next year.

I will be posting some photos of just the dogs on Tuesday.
