Photo Friday                    WORK:   TABLES & DESKS



How wrong it is for a woman to expect the man to build the world she wants, rather than to create it herself.

We have always had old oak desks in our home.  Too many, it seemed for little spaces.  But I've always loved them with their nicks and scratches, swirly and checked wood grain and dove-tail workmanship.  Sturdy little keys, still not lost, fitting into sweet little keyholes - locks that still work!

lovely old key holes

slide out work spaces on both sides, I love!







My old oak desk  is unreasonably big, maybe, but perfect for working on large projects; several at once or just my big messes in general.

PHOTO FRIDAY: FRACTURED

Today I was on the water once more.  
The Puget Sound area is my home - on the west coast - and several lakes, rivers and ocean inlets are very close by, so this summer our kayaks were often found on the water.
