About Me
- Reflection Through The Seasons
- I live in a small Welsh village which is situated in the southern tip of the Snowdonia National Park. Its an area of true outstanding natural beauty. We have the Cambrian mountains to the east of us and the coast of Cardigan Bay out to the west. My husband and I moved to Wales from The Cotswolds in England 19 years ago. We bought the old village Police Station, which we have worked tirelessly renovating ever since. You could say its a real labour of love. I have retired after working many years in the travel business, this now leaves me free to pursue the many things in life that I enjoy.

So fabulous Marion! It must have been great fun walking around the gardens looking at all the different artful scarecrows! Btw how's Christophers Africa journey going? Have you got any news? Hugs Carol xox
Marion, I do hope you are having a wonderful time on your excursion....thank you for the sweet comment on the wonderful rain we received on Saturday, almost 3 inches...every drop appreciated...the thirsty earth and her vegetation are revived....our Lord is so gracious...take care dear friend...Betty
Wow, great, Marion!
Sigrun
I really enjoyed that, all whose wonderful and creative people. Fabulous! Great idea.
Very creative scarecrows. Actually, they should do it in late summer in the hope that it will protect all the fruit from the birds.
I bet it brought the whole community together with a central talking point. Probably neighbours met for the first time in some cases.
Thanks for sharing this wonderful event with us Marion. How very creative all those people are! I think picture number 8 must be a person...the face looks very real?? The other "real" scarecrow (the blue lady) is looking very nicely dressed :)
It all sounds like great fun.
how wonderful! that great and creativ ideas! I love and would like the same contest in our village!
