Backyard Friends

In my backyard the old gray fence needed painting, so after painting for about an hour I began to get very bored, so I thought it would be much more fun to paint a purple door on the fence. Well I loved that so I added a window, then a window box with flowers. After a few days this darling little cottage appears.

When our granddaughters Deseriee and Alyssa came to visit they asked if they could walk through the door to the other side. Of course once they got closer to the purple door they realized it wasn't real. Later on that day while drinking lemonade on the deck I asked; "If someone lived there who would it be?" Immediately Desiree sprang to her feet and shouted; "people from Pluto had to get off because Pluto is no longer a planet!" So a wonderful story was born called, 'Starlations.'
