Live Laugh Love

Live….laugh…and Love
By John McLeod


Live well dear friends
In all you do,
Tho' paths be old
Or paths be new,
But to yourself
Be ever true, 


Live well!

Laugh often friends
Tho' passing years
Bring, sometimes, smiles
And, sometimes, tears,
For mirth forever
Warms and cheers 


Laugh often!

Love much dear friends
For love will bring
The healing joy
And hope of Spring,
Where pain and fear may never dwell
Nor anguish touch….

And so Live well,
Laugh often too,
And more, dear friends,
Love much!


I could not find the right sized star I was looking for today but found a set of metal script letters I thought would be perfect in the blue relief I painted.

Concepts

OK I have the tar paper up and the south wall is sealed, i apply the cedar shingles tomorrow, in the mean time here is what is what I have in mind.

Missing star

The gable is almost done. But I lost my star.  need to go to the Hobby Lobby.

Gable

Busy morning on my first day of vacation. I am sitting in the living room typing this covered in paint and caulking. I've decided to add a gable that will frame a barn red Texas star. Sounds simple? I've been out in the sun and this is my progress so far.

Getting so close now.

No pictures to share yet. We did go to the Homie today and i special ordered the last window I needed. It was just my luck that the size I needed was a stock size, 201/2 X 60. Hope it get's here soon. In the mean time I started to put in the roof, and trimmed the south wall further. Until I get some pictures posted here is a funky fresh video I found, hope you enjoy.
