A sign of the times !

Well i guess i am finally becoming more adept at techno "STUFF " -- of course by the time I understand each new thing --they give me a new phone or update my computer (totally self taught --set up my own blog etc --( 64 yrs young ) and then here we go again --. I am so happy i taught myself how to add a pic and get it to my e mail -- so happy i can share from my phone now -- watch out --may be a lot coming --
I am due to get an I phone in a couple of months , so may be short lived --
I showed a picture before ,of my hubs shop in a pre 1865 house we have on our property, after he built a porch on the back ,
He and my son have been collecting signs (really became pickers --like those on Tv -- as a hobby


These are the ones that were outside quality .. You know doing the mancave thing , well he is a woodturner ,hobby -and has the shop airconditioned but in nice weather spends time outside in his rocker ,with a lemonade .
Went to another auction -- got a great glass display case -- for our countrystore
that we are formulating -- such fun --
Off to make a couple of atc's to swap
Have a great week !!!
