The Log Farm

It was a cool, over-cast day so after cat-sitting, the retired-guy and I headed over to  The Log Farm to check out their goods before they close down for the winter. This place is fabulous and I recommend you drop in if you are ever in the Lanark area. If you drive from Ottawa it is about 45 minutes west.


I was looking for dishes.

Gary was looking for lamps and lamp shades.

I found lots of cats.  


3 to be exact.
Gorgeous, old spoiled cats. They have a good life here. They actually live in the barn but it is a clean, large barn with heat-lamps for the kitties. They also love to lounge on the beautiful, farm-house porch.

Well, I found dishes.


Came home with 2 creamers. Both $2.00.

Gary found a lamp that I will put away for him for Christmas. $100.00. I'd say I am the better thrifter although Shirley, the owner gave him a good deal. He is so happy with this lamp. He is polishing and cleaning it up as I type this. I have to remind him I am putting it under the tree for him....ya right!

The Log Farm is open from April thru to December. Love this place.

Ed ate lunch with his friends today. He walked from his bed to the kitchen without falling once and was able to  hold himself up while he ate. I can't believe the determination of this old guy. The day this happened the vet looked at us and said "I'm doubtful because of his age". We left the clinic with a very heavy heart. We have had many cats that have left this earth because it was their time. They were old and sick. I couldn't fathom saying goodbye to Ed because of a stupid accident. We are so happy I can't put it into words. Our beautiful Ed is on the mend.
He'll be awhile looking gimpy but that's ok.

I'm heading out for my 2km walk with Kane. I will smell the air,  feel the breeze, hear the geese, feel the sun & enjoy what's left of the Fall trees. The heaviness in my chest is gone and I am so thankful.

Hugs, Deb
