ITS A BEAUTIFUL DAY FOR A DRIVE...

WE HAVE A NEW MEMBER named Debi who has loaded her space with wonderful treasures.... Somehow the pictures I took yesterday did not do it justice so I will try again and post soon.    I will be at the shop today and I know that Debi will be there working in her space so stop by, meet Debi, and check things out throughout the shop! LOTS of new to see!

AND HAVE YOU MET OUR NEW NEIGHBORS?  Jon from our Vintage Market last year, just opened Barton Antique Mall just down the road in the old Barton Feed Store.  Very cool.  Stop by and welcome them to the neighborhood.... we love that you now have more places to visit when you come to Wade Creek House Antiques.  Also check out their Facebook page and give them a like.

 

 

Like I said, a beautiful day for a drive... we look forward to seeing you!

 

 

How cool are these...

Check out this group of books that I found in Debbie I's space.  She said that they seemed to work for the farmer whose estate she visited and bought them from.  They are dated 1958...

 

 

 

 

 

 

Looks like fun reading to me!  They would make a great gift... after you read them of course.

THANK YOU! THANK YOU! NOW what's next??

What a great Beginning Beekeeping class!!  Thank you David and Vonda!!  If you didn't make it, you missed out.  David taught us so much, sent us home with thick packets of information along with lists of other resources to look up.  They were great and those that attended enriched it with their experiences and questions.   I was so lucky when I met David and Vonda...they have so enriched my own beekeeping experience!  If you missed this year... put us on your calendar for next January.

THE RAIN IS COMING....

Rain is not only drops of water, it is the love of sky for earth.

REMEMBER THE DATE...

Saturday, January 17th (a week from this Saturday) at 11a to 1p, David will once again teach us about BEGINNING BACKYARD BEEKEEPING.  I got into beekeeping by accident when a swarm went into a bee box I was trying to sell at the shop.  We now sell honey produced by that hive.  David and his wife Vonda, have walked me through the process of keeping a healthy hive now that I have one.  They even helped me with my first harvest. 

 

 That middle box was the original box that the swarm went into..

 

 

 

They are so informative... they start at the beginning and walk you through.  You go home with handouts and a head full of knowledge and your questions answered.  Cost is $25... reservation required..  I will be there!  Call 503-630-7556 to reserve your spot.

A bee can never resist a flower in bloom.....
