Chris and I went to Chicago last summer and while we were there we toured downtown Chicago.

One of the places that I liked best in Chicago was Millennium park – see photo above – with it’s large outdoor entertainment theater and lovely flowers, and shrubs planted around it, and Cloud Gate.

I have photos of Cloud Gate on Tricia’s Musings. That’s the coolest sculpture ever so you must visit my other site too.

I’d love to go to Chicago and attend a concert or play or whatever they might put on in the outdoor Millennium park. I’ve heard the acoustics’s there are supposed to be amazing.






Discount Blinds at Terrys Fabrics

by

How have you dressed you windows? I know that some people prefer curtains while others prefer blinds. I suppose it depends upon the style of the house and the decor of the room as to which style of window dressing you might choose to use.

I have a mix or blinds and curtains in my 1920’s style home. I’ve found that curtains just don’t look right in my smaller spare bedrooms so I’ve opted to use Roman blinds which roll up into folds of material and have a curtain like effect. I also use mini blinds on my small basement windows as I find blinds makes it easier to allow the amount of light into the room that I want while making it hard for anyone outdoors to see into the room.

If you have been looking for blinds for your home you might want to take a look at the wide selection at TerrysFabrics.co.uk.

You’ll find a large variety of blinds at Terrys. They have Roller blinds, Roman blinds kits, Roman blinds, Venetian blinds, Vertical blinds, and wooden blinds. The company also offers quality custom made blinds.

If you have been considering getting some blinds for your home do check out the selection at Terrys Fabrics. The prices are great and the selection is outstanding.

Replacement parts for lawn mowers and outdoor equipment

by

So how are you lawn mowers holding up now that summer is here and the grass is growing?

Many of the new lawn mowers that you can buy these days have many parts don’t they? Some come with all the accessories that you could possibly need and others have accessories that you can purchase separately.

I’m bringing this up because I wanted to tell you about an online store called Mow Part. They sell lawn mower parts. All kinds of lawn mower and outdoor equipment parts.

I actually wish I knew of Mow Part about two months ago. We had an old trimmer of my parents and last year the part that holds the trimmer line cracked rendering the trimmer unusable. We’d already had some trouble finding the type of trimmer line that worked in that old trimmer too. Now I know that if I’d visited Mow Part I probably could have replaced the trimmer part and even found the correct trimmer line for it too. Believe me – I would have purchased a year or two’s worth of trimmer line!

I think this store carries pretty much everything you could possibly need for your lawn mower or other outdoor yard related accessories. They carry tires or wheels, chute covers, trimmer parts, snowblower parts, filters, repair manuals, carburetor parts, fertilizer spreader parts, and the list goes on and on.

If you have outdoor equipment bookmark this website. At some point in the future you might need replacement parts for your mower and now you’ll know exactly where to find it.
