And here is one more: I like acorns too, and I did not know that there are so many people who share my enthusiasm and admiration for those little treasures. I live in South Florida, and we have Live Oaks growing here everywhere. Every year around this time I sketch acorns, and collect them when I travel to the Northern states( acorns and leaves from the oaks growing in cold climate zones are so different).

I thought of you and your field trip around the Denton area and thought you might get a kick out of this pic. It was taken in Pilot Point off 455. Hope this link works. <BR/><A HREF="http://allyjoserudition.blogspot.com/search/label/Texas" REL="nofollow">Whining about Texas</A><BR/><BR/>I just subscribed to your mag. And by the way, I lived in Beamsville, Ontario when I was a baby. My brother was born there. My blessed father conveniently acquired a teaching job at a Christiain college there during the Vietnam War.

I can usually find a few little ones under the trees by our old library. A couple of years ago, I collected some teeny tiny ones, that are perfect for crafting little things.Lenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16147259175811183482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21558651.post-81779616031096618952007-09-14T23:54:00.000-05:002007-09-14T23:54:00.000-05:00Kelli, That was so cute.

Not the real kind, but they were drawn on sides of buildings, there's a little cafe called "The Acorn", even our water tower has an acorn painted on the side of it! I'm thinking, this town has a thing for acorns, maybe it's like a mascot of sorts or something.<BR/><BR/>I decided to research it a little more and found out that when our town was formed, they cut a railroad through the masses of wooded areas of oak trees. A college was built in 1889, and the founders decided to call it "Elon College" because Elon is the Hewbrew word for Oak.<BR/><BR/>So now that I've bored you to tears... again, I really like your acorns... and they made me smile!<BR/><BR/>Hope you have a terrific weekend, Kelli!Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12268291742313515729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21558651.post-41177293287851735382007-09-14T22:04:00.000-05:002007-09-14T22:04:00.000-05:00Hi Kelli--what an adorable show and tell--your lit...Hi Kelli--what an adorable show and tell--your little acorns are very cute.<BR/><BR/>I wasn't able to participate this week but I did post a zillion photos today on my blog:))<BR/><BR/>Have a lovely weekend my friend!<BR/><BR/>JulieannJulieannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11366445046704238024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21558651.post-54442753896646034232007-09-14T20:39:00.000-05:002007-09-14T20:39:00.000-05:00Love the acorns, especially the tea towel!Love the acorns, especially the tea towel!Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01308680396802432722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21558651.post-65663773492379828392007-09-14T20:33:00.000-05:002007-09-14T20:33:00.000-05:00Love it, they're adorable Kelli :)Love it, they're adorable Kelli :)Sandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00448386993712122412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21558651.post-70382682762826096872007-09-14T19:02:00.000-05:002007-09-14T19:02:00.000-05:00Oh.

We did the water test to see if any were worth planting and only 3 were 'sinkers' so we planted them. One came up and is flourishing in a small corner of the garden, but it will be a long time before we have a mighty oak! So much potential in such a wee bundle! By the way we gave the rest to the grey squirrel family and they were very appreciative, I'm sure!<BR/>I love your collection Kelli! Perfect to display for autumn!Heather Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13563913535839786305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21558651.post-772090831611022652007-09-14T14:52:00.000-05:002007-09-14T14:52:00.000-05:00Very cute acorns!
