Hi Marie,
ReplyDeleteOh I love the gardens on your property. Each and every turn is like being at a resort. I adore your yard art and statues. How wonderful to live in such a place. I know you and newly retired hubby have worked very hard. Thanks for the warning!! LOL I would imagine your days are different now and learning to adjust are in order.
I so miss you and love it when you post. You enjoy summer too, the hot weather and your upcoming trip. I will stay in touch dear one.
Blessings to you always.
Love you too, Celestina Marie
Bonjou Toni, good to hear that you both started a different stage in your life. I can understand well that you guys worked very hard, to say it decent! But what a yard. Beauty can be found anywhere, I just love all the romantic spots. Don't forget to sit down with the mister from time to time and enjoy your gorgeous paradise! Have a great summer Toni, please take care, warm wishes from afar, LiLi
ReplyDeleteDear Marie,
ReplyDeleteThis pictures are so lovely!
I am in love with spring and in love with this pictures.
Sweet greetings,
Marijke
Thank you for visiting my blog today.
ReplyDeleteI have missed your posts.
Your property looks beautiful!
Please take some to relax in the coolest part of the day with your DH!
Wishing you a wonderful week!
Hugs, Sharon
Love your beautiful "park" Marie!!
ReplyDeleteHah....I did it the other way around...I found me a guy 15 years my junior..... I'm retired....and he is still working ... although, having said that ... I'm sure you mean the yard...which is mostly mine to do. But.... as long as I don't have to go out to work as well...I like puttering in my garden. Of course, my yard is not anything like your size...so I have it easy in comparison...
I play out all summer too.... and I've just begun golfing again...so yeh... blogs will be taking a back seat to all the summer stuff. Plenty of months in the winter, especially up here north of the 49th... to hibernate and make bears... and dolls....enjoy your beautiful summer Marie.
Hello Marie! I was so happy to see a post from you! I love all of your gardens, the woods, your greenhouse and gazebo... it looks so calm and serene! Sounds like you and your hubby are super busy, but having fun... you are right, us girls can't retire, even if we don't work outside the home anymore! But that's ok, I'm not complaining... wishing you a beautiful summertime and hope to see more of your home and gardens soon... I will try to call you in several day... xoxo Julie Marie
ReplyDeleteGreat to find this post today! And love the wisteria pic especially!
ReplyDeleteXOXO LOLA:)
Dear Marie,
ReplyDeleteI love the photos of your yard. It looks so woodsy and wonderful. I also love what you did with your antique wicker buggy. I have missed talking with you. My husband was very ill but has again made an amazing recovery and is happily working on projects...a blanket chest just finished. A GE MONITOR REFRIGERATOR and more. Get your husband to start kicking out projects it will make retirement easier.Stop by...I always love hearing from you.
Hugs,
Pat
Wow, it looks like it could be a bed and breakfast get-away Marie~ Well deserved and enjoyed I'm sure! Enjoy your summer with your lovely family! Blessings!

ReplyDeleteOOOh love the peacocks. Just got your comment. I have the same problem leaving a comment for this person. I am sorry I do not know how to do this either and they are so sweet to stop in and see us.
Sounds like you are very very busy.
Hope you have fun this summer.
Love and hugs,
Pat

Hello ASDA,
ReplyDeleteI cannot leave you a comment because,you have it set up to where I cannot, but I would like to reply to your comment:
I learned a long time ago that gold or money can't buy you everything you need.
I don't have any Gold or money.Every thing my hubby and I have, we worked hard for 38 yrs to require the few things we have.Hard work made our yard pretty not money or gold..We don't own credit cards so we paid for evrything right off.
We are not Dr's or Lawers or anything of great imporants.Just middle class Americans and proud of it.I hope you did not mean any thing bad with that comment.
Thank you Marie Antionette
really like it,.. a very nice post ever seen...
ReplyDeleteHi me again!

PS With all yr great experience, wonder what you´d have replied to the "cheap necklace" woman over at my place?!!
Hello Marie!
ReplyDeleteI just adore your blog and have become your newest follower!
My husband is retiring in a couple years and I hope I can get him to enjoying gardening too!
Your place is beyond words beautiful and I'd love to live in such a woodsy area! And to have peacocks! How much fun it that!!
Thank you for sharing a piece of your world and I'll surely be back for more!!

Hello My dear,
ReplyDelete(((GASP))) I am loving your charming garden. How lovely with the gazebo your exquisite feathered friends and the beauty of nature all around.
I was noticing your side bar and the fact that you've been published! A huge congrats and a big hug and kiss from me. Thank you so much for popping by. Wishing you a marvelously decadent summer.

I’m back again (albeit briefly!) - & thanking you for your lovely comment on my last post and wishing you a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteXOXO LOLA:)
PS Wonder what you make of my guilty secret over at my place?!!
Well. You are impossible to contact!!! You didn't put your return address on the package - AND you don't have your email on your profile. How is a person supposed to THANK YOU for the lovely lovely box of get-well goodies?!?!
ReplyDeleteThey were such a delightful surprise, and cheered me up immensely! You're just a doll for thinking of me - thank you!!!
Hello Marie~My hubby will be 55 in a couple years and we've discussed him retiring when he gets there. I think he'll be (very) bored and I don't see him blogging to while away the hours, lol. Fortunately he works at home so it's pretty leisurely already. I've convinced him when 55 rolls around to start with working less hours and see how that goes (for me tee-hee). Although,I would like him to start painting rosescapes again when his time permitted.
ReplyDeleteLets chat about your spacious, serene, surroundings. You've got the perfect spot for a summers retreat. Oh my gosh the Peacocks...they're the perfect piece de resistance.
Enjoy your R&R sweetie.
Sweet wishes,
Sara
Hi Sweet Marie!!
ReplyDeleteWhat wonderful memories I have of your enchanting place... beauty everywhere I turned! The peacocks roaming freely made me feel like I was surely in paradise!! You made me & Chris feel like part of the family and I will never ever forget my time with you... Only a week & a half??
Woo Hoo!!
Love you sis! Sherry the aged one
Hi Marie,
ReplyDeleteLove your beautiful garden specially the peacock.
Lotsa love
Dear Ms. Antoinette, I sure enjoyed my walk. And I always love it when we get to see your peacocks. Hope all is well with you. Come for a visit when you can xo Lynn
ReplyDeleteHi me yet again! Just to let you know there's someone over at my place impersonating Marie Antoinette - ie you!!

Hi Marie, what a beatiful place!
ReplyDeleteI will be moving this weekend - to Colorado Springs, I'm not sure how long it will be before I get moved into my own place and have internet serice - hopefully not tooo long!
Hope you have a wonderful summer - and that you are doing well!
Love & hugs
Kris :)
Hello Marie~Thanks for strolling in for a visit. I would imagine you and hubs are still taking advantage of the summer weather, like we are.
ReplyDeleteWe only really get two summer months of sunshine... July and August. I've been sitting less and less at the computer and more and more outside enjoying the fountain, birds, picking fruits and veggies with the occasional cooking and baking in between.
Hope to see you soon and I can't wait to hear about your ventures that summer has taken you to.
Sweet wishes,
Sara
