Hi Chris. Welcome from the same area of the state as you. I too do not enjoy quilting in the summer. I would so much rather be outside. Don't own a horse anymore but hope to someday get to ride one again soon. Somehow I seem to be slowly collecting old sewing machines-didn't plan on it, but it's happening. You will love it here. Tons of wonderful quilts to see, tips to learn and ideas.
