Superstorm Sandy

Well, my blogging got derailed by a little storm named Sandy.  We lost power on Monday evening, October 29th.  Our house had no power until Saturday, November 10th around noon.  Fortunately, we only lost lots of trees, and there was no damage to life or property.  Also fortunately, we had a wedding to attend in Louisville, KY, so we left our cold, powerless house after 2 days, and didn't return until we were sure we had power.  We're still cleaning up trees, etc.  I did get down to my sewing room yesterday for the first time and tried to get inspired. It's very difficult to think about down or leisure time, when there's still so much yard mess and debris to clean up.

I'll get there, and post new pictures soon.  I promise.

These were beautiful 45 - 50 foot blue spruce and fir trees.  Now they're firewood.

Fortunately, all the trees that fell in back missed the shed.  But one of these fallen trees was an anchor for my hammock!

Until then, Happy Sewing and also Happy Thanksgiving!
