Sherry’s Shelves #97 – Cruising the Coast

Sherry’s Shelves #97 is my weekly update from October 2 – October 8, 2016.

Sunday Post #201 Countdown to Spring..

Stacking The Shelves {200}

~~~

Hello fellow bloggers. I have spent so much time the past couple of weeks reading and doing posts for blog ahead, that my eyes are blurring and one of them keeps twitching. I had to quit for a while and am looking forward to taking it slow this weekend, doing other things. How about you? Have you ever had this happen? What are your weekend plans?

If you want to participate in blog ahead, check out the link at the bottom right.

Mr Wonderful and I spent some time in Biloxi this past week, taking pics while these awesome cars were Cruising the Coast.

This seemed like the perfect opportunity to share my favorite Florida Georgia Line song.

For those of you in the line of fire from Hurricane Matthew, stay safe. 🙂
