Terra Studios- Bluebird of Happiness

Last week my mom came to Fayetteville (she lives in my hometown- Ozark) to purchase a laptop for her new business, Brookhaven the Garden Nursery. I had commented many times that I needed to get one before I started back to school in August. Well my sweet mom bought me one when she bought hers. Thanks momma! They needed to install some programs so we left both laptops overnight. Unfortunately mom had to go back that night so I picked up both the next day.

We decided to meet up today so that I could deliver her laptop. We met at Terra Studios on Hwy 16 south of Elkins since it's close to half way in between us. Plus neither one of us had been there in long time. Terra Studios is home of the Bluebirds of Happiness. It also has a pottery studio, blown glass gallery, and many gardens. They love gnomes and they are everywhere!

I warn you there are a TON of pictures:
