‘coon in the house

Posted on September 30th, 2013 by mountain girl  |  11 Comments »

In our travels into civilization this weekend, we found this coonskin cap at a mountain market. We’ve gotten lots of “Hey, Davy Crockett!” and “Are you Daniel Boone?” He just grins. It’s the only hat he will wear, and he thinks he’s incredibly funny when he has it on.Ā  (Which he is.)

We also stopped at World Market so I could get another look at this rug.Ā  I love the colors and the handwoven pebble texture, and it happened to be on sale when we went in yesterday. We bought it, and it really adds a lot to the room.Ā  It’s also a nice cozy place for the kids to play.

For the ‘coon, too.
