Windsor Fruit

 







Windsor Fruit by Johnson Brothers England was produced from 1956 to 1965. My hubby gave me a complete set of these dishes a few years ago. Lovely to set for this time of year.

Hamner Fire Tower

 


Fire Tower still stands, but forests long gone.

The 85' Hamner Fire Tower on Fletcher Avenue was built in 1936 and has been designated a landmark under Hillsborough county's historic preservation program (ELAPP). The tower is a remnant of  when the area was more rural. The tower was saved from demolition in 1993 when county commissioners voted to purchase the 8.7 acres surrounding property from the state. The small parcel was turned into a urban wildlife preserve.

Setting the stage

I enjoy changing the china in my hutch.  Every season speaks a different theme.  Fall is in the air, even if our temps are still in the 80's, the mood still speaks Fall.




I love to display my Friendly Village China from now until Thanksgiving.

 I only have one Pomona tea cup.  The brilliance of colors radiates the change in the season.


I was so thrilled when I found this old tool box last year.  It has graced my dining room table all summer and now is dressed for Fall.

Yes, the room is evolving.  The warm glow of Autumn sets the stage for the season to come.

A hint of Fall

Refreshing my table with just a hint of Fall.



I love how the china, silverware and glassware all echo the same swirly pattern.



The tea cart is on the ready for hot tea or coffee.





It's already the middle of September. Can Christmas be far behind??
