A classic piece of americana. Hi! I am back. I may have some visitors from time to time, but my original plan was a bit more than I bargained for. So come back. http://americana.visualblogging.com/archives/11454_1807447140/342620 Jen W 2010-02-01T09:34:18Z 2010-02-01T09:34:18Z <a href="http://americana.visualblogging.com/archives/11454_1807447140/342620" style="border:0;"><img src="http://my-expressions.com/up_media/7490/pblog/11406/et_1265034859.jpg"/></a><br> I was recently asked by a friend if I would like to be involved with an auction for Haiti. All proceeds will go to a charity called St Joseph's Family of Homes for Children, which is located in Haiti. St. Joseph's is funded through a Canadian non-profit organization called Broken Wings Missions, Inc. . They will be handling the sales from the auction and sending on the funds to St. Joseph's. What is even more awesome is that the Canadian government is also matching all funds made through this auction. The auction will take place from Feburary 1st - 9 AM EST - February 8th. The auction site: To Haiti With Love My contribution can be viewed here. There are so many wonderful items to bid on and throughout the week, more will be added. So keep checking back. I know many of us have been moved by all of the loss and destruction in Haiti and have felt completely helpless as to what to do. This is one of many ways you can contribute and also receive a wonderful gift in return. As a favor, I ask you to forward this on to as many people possible. Remember, this is for a good cause and all the money made in this week-long auction will go to St. Joseph's. xoxo - Jen http://americana.visualblogging.com/archives/11454_1807447140/341791 ShannonS 2010-01-17T05:01:08Z 2010-01-17T05:01:08Z <a href="http://americana.visualblogging.com/archives/11454_1807447140/341791" style="border:0;"><img src="http://my-expressions.com/up_media/7490/pblog/11406/et_1263256283.jpg"/></a><br> Fulton Opera House in Lancaster, PA Majestic Theater in Gettsyburg, PA http://americana.visualblogging.com/archives/11454_1807447140/341790 ShannonS 2010-01-16T05:01:07Z 2010-01-16T05:01:07Z <a href="http://americana.visualblogging.com/archives/11454_1807447140/341790" style="border:0;"><img src="http://my-expressions.com/up_media/7490/pblog/11406/et_1263256083.jpg"/></a><br> Antiques in Shartlesville, PA Junk Shop in Orrtanna, PA Sign at Junk Shop in Orrtanna, PA http://americana.visualblogging.com/archives/11454_1807447140/341789 ShannonS 2010-01-15T05:01:17Z 2010-01-15T05:01:17Z <a href="http://americana.visualblogging.com/archives/11454_1807447140/341789" style="border:0;"><img src="http://my-expressions.com/up_media/7490/pblog/11406/et_1263255963.jpg"/></a><br> Roadside America in Shartlesville, PA http://americana.visualblogging.com/archives/11454_1807447140/341788 ShannonS 2010-01-14T05:01:23Z 2010-01-14T05:01:23Z <a href="http://americana.visualblogging.com/archives/11454_1807447140/341788" style="border:0;"><img src="http://my-expressions.com/up_media/7490/pblog/11406/et_1263255878.jpg"/></a><br> Twistee Treat in Wernersville, PA Red Rabbit in Duncannon, PA Pinball Machine at Red Rabbit in Duncannon, PA http://americana.visualblogging.com/archives/11454_1807447140/341787 ShannonS 2010-01-13T05:01:29Z 2010-01-13T05:01:29Z <a href="http://americana.visualblogging.com/archives/11454_1807447140/341787" style="border:0;"><img src="http://my-expressions.com/up_media/7490/pblog/11406/et_1263255688.jpg"/></a><br> The Coffee Pot in Bedford, PA Giant Shoe in Hellam, PA Little Boy Blue in Schellsburg, PA http://americana.visualblogging.com/archives/11454_1807447140/341786 ShannonS 2010-01-12T05:01:25Z 2010-01-12T05:01:25Z <a href="http://americana.visualblogging.com/archives/11454_1807447140/341786" style="border:0;"><img src="http://my-expressions.com/up_media/7490/pblog/11406/et_1263255507.jpg"/></a><br> Roadside Produce Stands in Manheim, PA http://americana.visualblogging.com/archives/11454_1807447140/341785 ShannonS 2010-01-11T19:09:37Z 2010-01-11T19:09:37Z <a href="http://americana.visualblogging.com/archives/11454_1807447140/341785" style="border:0;"><img src="http://my-expressions.com/up_media/7490/pblog/11406/et_1263254977.jpg"/></a><br> Hi.

But it's cold there today. -17 degrees F this morning. That is painful.
