Another amazing sneak peek… or the calm before the storm!!

Yesterday Audrey  I took off and I drove about 90 minutes southeast almost to Horseneck Beach for a shoot of a gorgeous colonial home! With a major very unseasonal snowy blizzard coming later in the day, I was worried that I wouldn’t be able to concentrate taking photos, but Susan and Tom’s beautiful home and yard were just the ticket to take my mind off the 12” plus snow we were expecting. As Audrey sat with Susan and helped her with the homeowner’s questionnaire, I happily clicked away at room after room of wonderful prims, antiques and folk art.

Susan and Tom treated us to Panera for lunch and after a short break, I quickly got back to work as the rain and wind howled outside. Thankfully, I took exterior shots when we arrive in the morning!!

Halfway home, the snow started in earnest and the roads were slushy and messy but we made it home to my house and Audrey then made it the additional 50 minutes home from here. And did it snow. My area got 12+ inches and further west and north got many more inches. With the leaves on trees still, it created a very dangerous situation and broken limbs took down many power lines and blocked roads and even railroads. Many (hundreds of thousands) in MA are without power still including my parents and my son, DIL and Lili. They have been here all day and may be staying the night if power is not restored and I have been a busy Meemee with a 2 year old underfoot all day. Lili is calling for me to read to her, s I will leave you with these sneak peeks!!

Now for that sneak peek…

Holiday issue

…what?????

Did you think we were going to show you another full page??  Naaaaww – you have to buy the magazine for that!! hehehe! Nope this is just a tease!! Pictured are some of the pages of the holiday issue neatly stacked and ready for folding. Kristine stopped in to the Forum the other day to do a press check. This is what she told us “I always enjoy seeing the magazine being printed, folded, trimmed and bound. The whole process amazes me. I was grinning from ear to ear when I saw these beautiful pages! The photos are amazing! This issue is going to be the best one yet! Get ready for some serious eye candy... 6 full home tours.”

The printer starts shipping the magazines on November 1st and depending on what regional and local Post Offices it travels through to get to you and how fast or slow they are,  it will be arriving in your mailbox by mid to late November (or sooner)! We can't wait for you to see it! If you have not ordered your subscription yet...what are you waiting for?

Visit our website at www.aprimitiveplace.org for more details!

If Mother Nature doesn’t snow us out on Saturday, (YES it is SNOWING RIGHT NOW and more is predicted!!)  Audrey and I are headed out to another photo shoot so stop back late on Sunday for some sneak peeks of another wonderful home!

Until next time ~

prim blessings and hugs, Linda
