More Pictures

Well folks, the first entry is up and running. Now to see if there is a more elegant way to add pictures day by day instead of what appears to be "at the bottom" of the page. Tough teaching this old MOM a new trick!! OK - here we go - this is getting better. I like that the pictures appear with their "captions" and they don't all have to line up in a row~~ So picky - I know. Now to add a 3rd picture where I want it the FIRST try!!! Well, it still plops them out on TOP - - What would my BLOG be without some sewing show-off!!

Here is a quilt that I made as a gift this year. I hope my recipient isn't offended - but I am planning to make one almost like it for our living room. A bit Christmasey - but the colors will look grand in there!









Here we are on our first backpacking trip. We went to Merck Forest in October '07. We rented a drafty little cabin. It did the trick because we didn't have to pack the tent nor quite so many "amenities". THe girls did great. The views and weather were spectacular. Here are the girls in their Christmas finery in front of our 11' tree. We cut it from a local farm. Lovin' that farm! It is a georgeous tree - and narrow enough to not totally impede traffic in the living room. OK - now to see what happens if I load a 2nd picture!

Congratulations, and welcome to the world of rampant ramblings! Pictures came out great. Now all you need to do is get opinionated about a topic nobody cares about and jam it down our throats! example - lack of rights for left-handed people, legalization of marijuana etc ; ) Elise

Coming up with opinions shouldn't be a problem. Probably using local products, energy conservation and being GREEN! My pet projects!
