Nellie's, nodp



Come on down to Nellie's restaurant and hotel! My granddaughter and I are new fans to the Little House on the Prairie series. I've read her all the books--some twice, and now we're watching the TV series with Michael Landon. (Different from the books, but entertaining none the less) We're now on season 8--where Nellie, the spoiled and bratty child of Walnut Grove, grows up and sort of changes her ways. She now owns a restaurant and hotel. My granddaughter has been after me to help her put on a whole production of Little House--she has a date set, the staging thought out--she knows what my tasks are from sewing costumes to painting the set--she's even picked out friends to play certain parts. I know I should encourage this, but I'd like to help without turning this into a big production--hmm--that is JUST what she wants! I thought maybe helping her make this doll house diorama just might do the trick?!.... I believe the production is still on!!
My revisited painting for today is, 'Turtle Rock'
