"Maybe you should be gnawing on a chicken leg while getting the picture of that tie to get us back on subject"

Okay, I took your advice, Mary. Here's my shoffice chicken wearing my beloved tie!

Lastly, a final close-up of the tie so if I ever wear it you'll recognize me by the wonderful flowers and colors of the tie, a nowadays one of a kind.

That is no doubt the most gorgeous tie I ever did see and also too no doubt I would most likely swoon at the sight of it.
Sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh....

Ditto! And to think Mary thought I would re-gift it to tying up tomatoes! tsk tsk tsk..

It's one of a kind for sure! And the chicken looks wonderful wearing it, another one of a kind. And if you ever dress up and wear it you'll be ..... oh you already are!

debonair.

Is that the word you were looking for Mary?

Yeah, that's a good word. He'd turn a few heads anywhere he went. Bib overalls, straw hat, tie, bare feet. Original. And after all, who wants to be like everybody else? Oh, just don't look at the younger set, they're all so busy being different that they all look alike! Not Shoe, he is in a class by himself!

I rarely use these smilies, but

"Oh, just don't look at the younger set, they're all so busy being different that they all look alike! "

Hah! That's it in a nutshell. What a good perspective you have, Mary.

Now about that debonair part, NOT! Ya see, my avatar pic is from the very first DG Roundup. I had red hair then, not white/blond like now. By the way, shhhh...Dave took that pic when I was in Tennessee. Give credit where credit is due, eh?

:>)

Actually I like the picture that's on your MoonDance Farm site. Something about the blue shirt and blue eyes. I was just thinking that the flower on my hat might go very well with all your blue. Just sayin'

Ohhh, that pic. Well, it is more recent but not up to date. Still have the blue eyes though! Heck, probably still have the blue shirt! (I have more wrinkles now, and they're not in the shirt!)

Maybe I can borrow your new blue flowered hat sometime, Sharon! I love blue!

Shoe

We'll take turns. I'll borrow your shirt for awhile and you can borrow my hat.
I love blue, too.

It's deal. You might wanna wait till summer now...kind cool here lately for that shirt!

Off to go rest, hopefully doze of for a while. (Not that it will happen but I gotta try!)

See ya!

Shoe (dreaming of Kentucky campfires...wondering if Sharon went to this years P-Point Round UP)

No Shoe, but we'll have to talk about that another time.
Me too about the sleep thing.

Good Morning!

You're right Shoe, I didn't see this thread. Thank you for linking me to it.

Love the tie and I think your chicken head needs to come to the giggle thread and hang out with Ruby and Rachel

Sharon, I liked the picture with the Blue eyes ad shirt and good ol strawhat too.
Shoe I Liked the tie, is beautiful and I loved the chicken you had it on, very nice..

Sharon said:That is no doubt the most gorgeous tie I ever did see and also too no doubt I would most likely swoon at the sight of it.
Sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh....

Especially if it was connected to a handsome codger like Shoe....

There's gotta be a story behind that chicken. Tell us, Shoe.

I am seriously trying to avoid anymore reference to chickens.

"I am seriously trying to avoid anymore reference to chickens."

Hah! Sharon, are you chicken!!
Oops, I should change to to "Sharon, are you a scaredy cat!?"
Is that better, no reference to chickens?

Thanks, All, for the comments on the tie. One day I'll wear it, I promise.
As for the chicken head, I used to take it to the mkt w/me and mount it on my water cooler. People knew there was free cool well water at the "chicken head" each Saturday.

It's mounted on a styrofoam mannequin head...I should've used it for my Garden Art scarecrow, right Vic?

Shoe

Yes Shoe, you should submit for your scarecrow.

That contest is going on until the end of the month so you get over there and post it
