Vicki--your avatars was one of the first I saw when I joined the board. Your pictured of your house always looked so inviting. (my DH even noticed it!!) I also always noted your "signature" too, "I would rather be in the mountains quilting away." I am just so delighted for you!
Within the last six months, we moved as well to our "mountains" as well(although it's only 2600 feet), I retired and had a similiar experience with the local quilt guild here. Isn't it fun? I'm lovin' every minute of it!
