While traveling through Mississippi, we stopped at a favorite restaurant and I couldn't resist this photo

Jean,

Beautiful and colorful banner, especially on the gray, rainy and dreary day we had today.

Could we see a full size pic please?

So bright and cheery - and perfect on this grey, cold, rainy day in NC. Thank you Jean! Thumbs up

I agree with Marilyn, would love to see the pic. Smiling

Hi all, Have been MIA here since about the first of November when I came down with a horrendous cold, sore throat, and various other problems. After 4 visits to the ER here in FL and then a trip back to AR to see my primary doc and a visit to a gastroenterologist, I am slowly getting back to normal (whatever that is).
@Marilyn, I am looking up the pic for you. It will take a little time.

Jean, that original picture is a work of art. It has a lot of character. Taking that cutting for the banner was very clever and creative, but I just love the original. Wishing you improving health, and may the New Year bring you only better health and joy. Take care.

@Fleur569 Thank you so much for your nice comments. I, too, loved the original. Also I want to thank you and @Marilyn for the acorns. I have a lot of catching up to do here but will have to do it after the first of the year. Our daughter and her husband are coming for a visit the day after Christmas and we are getting ready for their visit and preparing for it is taking me a little longer than usual but DH is giving me lots of help.
