Finally the freshly painted posts were set in concrete and after many, many coats of sealer on the blue sign after my dear son Dennis & daughter in law Michelle sent this to me for Christmas after they had already spent hours creating it. I will add our House numbers soon and it will be nicely seen from the driveway entry to our home. I will plant some pretty bright colored flowers too when the weather warms a tiny bit more, to accompany the white tea rose, grasses & lavendar plants. We might offer fresh eggs, wildflower honey & fresh produce this fall but the U-Pick blackberries are going to take a couple years. The sign has a few other offers that will probably never be put to use like Sleigh rides, where they came up with that one is beyond me.. However Clay has requested one more and ( if they do make it) it will go right up there under Fresh Eggs " "We Don't Rent Pigs!"quoted right from one of his favorite books"Lonesome Dove". Yes, he has quite a sense of humor matching that of the sign creators.

From the standpoint of the creators....We originally made the sign as a decorative piece and didn't think that it was going to end up in actual use. We are thiriled that it is being used practically now and hope that we can find the time to get Clay his "Pig sign". Had we known you would actually use it we would have painted it with a different paint to begin with. We are so glad you love it so much.
How cool is that! Love it!

Cheryl, you guys did a great job on the sign. It looks really good. I could picture some pretty flowers all around it. But don't get the "we don't rent pigs".
