wow! How beautiful. We didn't get any of it in mid Tn, it all went east. Maybe a white Christmas for you. I am from all over moved 28 times but Michigan during my teen years. It was always fun with the winter sports. Now I hate cold. I figure if it's cold there should be snow, if no snow then darn it, it should be warm. Your house is really cute. I am sure you have already realized it's quite a job doing repair work or at least it can be. I just finished a postage stamp Sunshine and Shadows dating to mid 1800's. It was an honor to do the work mostly but my I was scared to even touch it at first. She loved it when it was done. It was a beautiful piece to begin with the repairs brought it back to life. Good luck to you and have fun. Keep in touch. Daphne

Hey Cousin! Its about time you caught me here. LOL

Yeah, we had to call a neighbor up the street (farmer with BIG tractor) to ask him if he'll plow us out tomorrow morning.

Its 7:06 - its still snowing. This state isn't made for it - NY, NH, ME, MA, VT - yes, they know how to handle it - here in VA - NOT so much! It's going to be a couple of days till we can get out......this is the biggest snow I remember here. Having grown up in upstate NY this is nothing.

I tried to convince my hubby to buy a snow blower yesterday. He didn't. :evil: He may be reconsidering....haha

See you are from Va, and say nearer the mountains, and say, usually not a lot of snow...so how did that go for you today?? Down here in the Richmond area where I am, we had about 6 inches then sleet, and now snow showers!!!

I love the colors you chose for your daughters quilt....
ETA...I then finished reading the posts and saw your snow!!!
Where in the mtns are you??

Martha, we had about 5 minutes of flurries IN M'Boro Tn. We were hoping for a little more than that. Your area was on the news a bit ago,WOW!! I think it's time for a snowblower. You need to make snow angels and send a photo.

MarthaVA

I am in Orange County - but my mailing address is Culpeper (hard to explain). We are not IN the mountains - we are probably about 30 minute drive from Skyline Drive. I see the mountains when I drive to town - its so lovely.

As far as the snow --- well, I'll be taking some more pics now that its DONE! LOL My daughter had sent out something she found on the 'net a few weeks back that said this area could be looking at 40" overall this winter.....I think we've gotten a fair start! Whew. We usually don't get snow till Jan/Feb. So who knows what we're in for! :shock:

MarthaVA

Yeah, don't know about snow angels - if I laid down in the snow right now - I'd sink! :lol: We have to get dug out. That's going to take a LOT of work.....

Welcome! I love the quilt you made for your daughter.

Wow! Welcome to the board from South Louisiana. Don't you just love the D9P? It's the first thing I learned when I hopped on board here. Since then I've learned a whole lot of great things. I'm still struggling the computer and the digital camera, but the rest is going well. And I've made a great number of friends.

Oh and about your DPT -- it's great. :thumbup: I love your arrangement of blocks. I've never used that one.
