    Thanks!!!
    Perhaps you should come for a little vacay here and see what we are like in person!!!! and perhaps we can take a little excursion around the bay and check out that lighthouse and picnic!! I'm game to go there anytime.. it has now become one of my favourite places to go

    I would just love to! But, I guess I need my passport and it expired last February ...

    And could I bring my little dogs???????

    That would be fabulous. I'd like to drive up there for a vacay all right. I could see New England on the way. I want to visit Maine some time and just keep going!

    Truth is, I'm not very geographically astute. Is New England on the way?????

    :lol:

    (I'm pulling the maps out now!)

    I could make a "trip planner" at the Rand McNally website!

    yes I do believe that New England is along the way...Newfoundland is an island so you will have to get a ferry across.
    I don't mind you taking your dogs!!! but best to wait on that trip til next summer. Hopefully by then I'll have my house with a garden so the poochies can play in the garden.

    geeesh.. glad you're not my boss!!

    I took a little break last night and spent a couple hours with Mum. We went to the post office to pick up another package of FABRIC and then off to Chapters to have a Java and browse the many wonderful books I would love to get. I ended up getting a book for myself and one for Trevor!! I'm a huge bookworm along with my quilting!!

    I'm back to work tonight on the quilt GCathie!!! I'm going I'm going!!!

    hahahahaha thanks for the pictures they are wonderful and as i can see we are all in envy of where you live. Who knows you just might get a bunch of visitors in the next couple of years, and they might go shopping at your house and others too.
