It would be fun to see visitors reactions when they come out though!  ;D

So, I was researching what type of pagan shops or groups they might have in Edinburgh just now and I found this awesome looking shop on the Royal Mile that carries this BADASS! statue! I think it would look fabulous in the grove:

That IS beautiful.  I'd guess about $150?

They have alot of very nice pagan shops over there.  If you are ever down into Knaresborough in North Yorkshire, they have a shop called the Rowan Tree.  Really nice.

On a more serious note.  We really need something on the windows in the front room be it blinds or curtains or some combo of the two.  The heat coming in is intense when the sun is shinning and we've gone from looking like a frat house to looking like a crack house.

We gotta do something.

How do you mean a "crack house"?

And a doorbell too.  I was in the kitchen trying to clean out the well from the ancestors altar, rocks, container and all (since we've had a new pump sitting there for months) and I totally didn't hear the couple who were knocking at the door so they were out there for probably 20 minutes before someone else showed up. 

Yes crack houses don't have curtains or if they do they are bed sheets.

I don't.

Bennu and I were talking about it this weekend.  We were talking about white inner curtains with something else on the outside.  Almost everything I've looked at didn't do anything for me but I thought there were some folks who were planning some trips to go look for and buy curtains, I could be wrong. 

I don't know but I imagine that we want light to come in but to reflect the heat out.  Past experience has shown that the shorter curtains work better than the floor length because people lean back in chairs and pull the curtains down (not meaning to). 

That's just some of my thoughts, nothing cast in stone.

You could also put up some blinds to start with , not the metal kind or wood kind, but the fabric kind that fold up when you pull them up.  This would help with heat coming in to some extent.

With the colors in the room, I too have a problem with the color of the scarf.  I'd have to look at a palet of colors that go with beige and brown.  Gold comes to mind, or burnt sienna or the like, but off the top of my head, I'm not good at chosing colors.  Have to see them.

We need rubberbands for the office
We need paper lunch bags or "doggie bags" after ROC and Revels
We need grass seed
We need liquid handsoap for the parsonage bathroom, probably a container for the main bathroom too.

On the liquid hand soap, I believe there are still some large refill bottles around the grove (kitchen or bathroom)

We also need some zip lock bags to take home moist foods.  **There's just no need to put them in the fridge as they probably won't be any good in a week.**

We also need some dish washing soap.  We have about 1/3 bottle in one of the kitchens.

I have the liquid hand soap for the grove.  Crystal gave it to me to get it to the grove and I keep forgetting to get it out of the car.  It will be there this weekend.
