the truck ... pick up ...

... just the other day I took a day out of 'homeschooling' with the kids and went for a drive in the country with hubby to pick up this old beauty ...  

... and as you can see it's pretty roached !!!

Still deciding if we'll try to re-sell it, OR  just clean it up for a little Shabby Chic photoshoot which sounds like a fun project to me ..

... this one is at The Prairie in Texas ... {Rachel Ashwell's B & B }

Rachel Ashwell - The Prarie B & B

For Christmas last year, my mum gave me the gorgeous new Rachel Ashwell book ...

I LOVE it and have been drooling at all the beautiful images of her newest business venture - The Prarie B & B which is in Texas.

I've decided that it MUST be on my 'things to do before I die' list and hopefully will be sooner than later.

Has anyone been ????
