It was time to escape the snow. I know that I had enough. I always hope when i get home that its almost over. We pulled out after church on Friday night  drove to Clarksburg, West Virginia.  Saturday brought us  Skeeter’s Hot Dogs in Wytheville, Virginia, for lunch and Sunday’s Soul Food in Walterboro, South Carolina for supper.  Spent the night in Kingsland, Georgia.    Sunday was spend wandering around Ameila Island.  Traveled down A1A and rode this ferry across the St. Johns River. Found this amazing shop!   The art and creativity of the vendors was amazing!  Then we went to supper at Safe Harbor Seafood.   The line was so long that we opted for takeout and a tailgate picnic along the river.      Anyone who knows me, knows I am not a huge bird fan and JWS knows this well.    So Why?  Why would he choose to feed the rest of the seagulls his French fries right over my head?    We ended up arriving at our destination in Daytona yesterday!  Now its time

      In my case, apparently a ton or  seven to be exact!     In my defense, I started a prayer shawl for a friend who is going through a rough time right now.  I felt that it would help me to remember to pray for her daily.  I didn’t like the yarn. (see the mint green) I bought white. (not soft enough) I finally got to a Hobby Lobby and bought the blue variegated. Perfect.   To be fair, at least I prayed through all the ones I didn’t like.  They will still be fine for church donations,  just not quite special enough for my friend.    Then there is this stash above.  I found this great little yarn shop in Punsxutawney Pa.  Autumn House Fiber Works     The owner was so helpful finding me great yarns that were not wool and so many were on sale. I am learning new stitches and trying to expand my skills.   Then there is the Annie’s Kit Club that shows up every month and teaches me more new skills.   Plus, my hands work better if I vary the projects!   Enou
