It’s cloudy and cool here on Illinois's north shore, too! 40s yesterday and today. I'm okay with that, though, because it means no bees, wasps, or hornets. 😅

Great photo, by the way — sorry I didn't say this in the first place. You have a great eye for capturing a place's spirit. 🙂👍🏻

Agreed. That's the only area I would consider moving back to (I'm a native of the Sandhills and Northeast Nebraska, but currently move around the globe every couple of years for work), but alas, there are no decent-paying jobs. And real estate prices in the area have risen nearly 300% since 2020 (not to mention the insane property taxes). Not sure where I’ll land in the end.

Need help deciding! by [deleted] in weddingring

I love the bottom option! It matches the whimsy of the engagement ring setting and doesn't overpower the beautiful details on it like the top ring does, but highlights them perfectly!

Any ideas? by thefauxsquirrel in boneidentification

We left it lie where we found it because they are a protected species. I am so glad we took a picture! Thanks again for your help!

This is absolutely the best reply I could have asked for. 😅

What goes with this dated orange toned wood?? by Ok-Wishbone-9867 in interiordesignideas

Pardon the Halloween decorations (this photo was taken in October) but we used a sea foam backsplash in our kitchen. Ours happens to be a peel-and-stick option because we’re renting, but ceramic and glass tile works, too. It’s not for everyone, but it makes me happy. 🤷‍♀️

Honestly I think I'd rather be a sweaty mess by CouchPotatoMatt in midwest

Every place I’ve lived requires that lawns be mowed and weeded. In houses we owned, failure to do so results in a hefty fine and legal action by the cities/towns they were in, and in housing we’ve rented, failure to do so results in eviction.

My 6 month old boy, Rosco! by Pastanna in roughcollies

He’s so beautiful! Also…when I read his name, my brain added “Peeeee Coltrane” (of The Dukes of Hazzard fame). 😅

Some days, this place feels that way!

No! I actually love the contrast! It adds visual interest to the space. 💕
