That's Minnesota except for the Senator war we went through from November, 2008 to May, 2009. I mean, we had two inches of snow yesterday - fourth season starting. But then, we will have Indian Summer and that is the time we pull the shorts out again, for a few days, only to be lambasted with another storm. The springs are beautiful right down to the dandelions, the summers are warm/hot with mosquitos the size of B-52s, the autumns are crisp with beautiful colored leaves, especially the maple and sumac, the winters are cold, crisp, cold, icy, cold, I don't really like winter that much. Only until the day after Christmas. Then it is down hill until March.
Iowa is pretty much like Minnesota.
Excuse me, where do you find the little sewing people like you have on your notes and there is someone else has one where the little lady is sitting sewing on a quilt. They are so sweet. Edie
