Miss Rose will answer the Door and wave, Mr. Tree! That will be CHAPTER ONE! :D She will only be the cleaning lady however cuz the crooked little man lives there with his crooked little cane...and he'd whack me with it if I tried to move him out! HA!
What a funny little story THAT would make!
Thanks each of you. I really enjoyed --ALL-- of your comments.

P.S. Ever since BP I sort of left arts and crafts in the dust. No time for them now. I dont mind. Life is filled with phases. A rolling stone gathers no moss. :) #8533028

Well Janice, after the wedding ends on the beach, I'll draw up your pans for a nominal fee. :D The backyard is really cute, too, but you have to look at the back of the plate to see it! HA! (Just kidding!)
Thanks for the smiles! See you at YOUR galleries!
