Oh luna...wish I were a "little mouse in the corner" and could have been on that trip to the Domes! Everything looks so beautiful and being the little snippet that she is, JT made herself right at home! Thanks for the great pics ... and I will go to your album to see the rest.

Happy to see a few Iowa things in your "loot"...the miniature blue bottle, some buttons & beads & that little fairy flower pot & clay bunny...& leather cords...& 2 tiles...WOW! Someone loaded & shipped those heavy tiles & bowl..they are awesome! ...you just will have TOO MUCH FUN with your mosaicing and fairy projects! Amazing, isn't it...how much is in that small box!!! I'm getting ready to use my 2 HORSESHOES from purplemoon on a birdhouse! Fun! Fun!

Thanks to nmgirl ... for starting the Junk Train! Enjoy, luna, for JT will hit the tracks before you know it! Jeanne S.

What a beautiful place to visit!!! I would want to stay all day. JT must be plum tuckered out...you too!!! I love her little dolly!
And you kept some awsome things... You must post about your altered art projects. That is the exact way my crafting is going these days. I've been collecting bits and pieces and reading alot of books. There are some awsome photos on google images.

Thanks for sharing your visit with JT.

I LOVE the domes! The flowers and plants were beautiful! No wonder you and JT and Bob had such a great time! And you really did score on the loot in the junk train! Yay for you! JT is going to definitely need some rest after her adventures!

Enjoying your adventures with JT. Her pigtails are so cute. What a lovely place to go for a family outing.
You scored big on your goodies. Can't wait to see your finished projects.

Wow. Those are beautiful gardens. How great to be able to see a wonderful garden in the winter. Luna, sorry the box was so heavy but I just had to share my tile booty with you - I know how you love to mosaic. I found it when I stopped to pick up some dumped broken concrete and it was on the other side of the pile under a bush that was also dumped. I stopped at that site maybe 3 or 4 times to get all I could. Here is a picture of JT with all the tile that I got.

Sugarmaple, when my Bob picked up the box, he said, "What's in here, cement?" He wasn't too far off the mark! lol! When I first opened up the box, I couldn't figure out why it was so heavy ... that is until I got to those tiles in the bottom. I love the natural color so I'm sure I'll find some good use for them.

JT has been behaving herself the past couple of days. But she keeps saying we have to go somewhere this weekend that will top last weekend since it will be her last weekend here! Gosh, she is demanding!

JT's sure getting spoiled, she won't want to stay home when she finally gets there!! The Domes is a beautiful park, it is a lot like the Huntington Gardens in San Marino,Ca. DD & family took me there last year but most of flowers were outside, except ferns & rare flowers. I thought it was so nice but I love the pic of the masses of flowers with the pink & blue,so yummy!!!And inside too!! Great place to get inspired for planting pots or bed of flowers! Jan

I forgot to add this picture ... I also got this pretty hummingbird planter out of the Junk Train.

I also thought I'd share a video of the light show they put on at the Mitchell Park Domes at night. It is very cool! The link to the video at YouTube is below.

Tomorrow I'm not sure where we will take JT. I wanted to take her to a special museum here in Milwaukee until I found out it costs $16 a person to get in there! Yikes! So we will try something else. She is dying to do something here in Milwaukee and I'm trying to fulfill her wish! Just stay tuned for more pictures!

Luna, sure looks like JT is having a wide variety of experiences there. I love how sweet she was visiting your Mom, and feeding the goldfish. LOL.
That hummingbird planter is lovely! I spied the 2 little brown bottles from AZ in your "keep pile".
Its amazing the amount of stuff that little ol' box can hold. Tho you might have to get a new one after all those heavy tiles, LOL. I did, cause I got ROCKS. Wooo Hooo.
Bet the Post Office isn't too fond of our Junk Train!!
I'm dying to know what JT is going to do next. I've caught her album up...got a bit behind on it, sorry about that.

hugs, Karen

Luna, you really chose some good junk! I recognize the little gold boots, as I loved them too, but could never figure out what to do with them! Glad they found a good home :-)

JT is having such a diverse time with her travels. What fun she's having there in WI!

I loved the video of the Domes. How cool! ~tenderlee
