It has antique shops and flea markets to browse and a beautiful area. Lots of quilters in Maine too. Another fun<br />place to see is Amelia Island in northern Florida. My grandma lived there for most of<br />her life and it is a port town, beautiful beaches and lovely old homes.

Beautiful countryside as well and their handcrafts are works of art. And wonderful quilt shops. Stay in an Amish B&B if possible, or at least have dinner in an Amish home which we arranged through our B&B.

Nothing better for healing, resting up, and finding your usual energy. <br /><br />Love the creativity and humor in the many cow and moose quilts. Prof, Moostard has to be just about my favorite because I played Clue a lot as a child and a lot more with our sons.<br /><br />On your way to Richmond next summer, you can enjoy the lovely Blue Ridge Mountains!<br /><br />I remember a silly poem from the 1950s about "My get-up and go, got up and went." and that is all too true of my chronic fatigue from lupus. Still, fabric waits for me! Gotta love that!<br /><br />Hugs!Barbara Annenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5875685329759208622.post-2708551015054175092015-08-26T05:23:02.652-07:002015-08-26T05:23:02.652-07:00Mary Lou -- so glad to see you back!

I think of you often and send up little prayers for your healing every day.<br /><br />A good and restful place for you to visit might be Vermont - lots of beautiful mountains, beautiful fall foliage and challenging snowy ski runs too. Something for every season! <br /><br />The Fletcher Farm School in Ludlow teaches many "old-time" classes in lace making, weaving, wood carving, basket making, and of course, quilting. It's like summer camp for adults - great folks too!DianePnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5875685329759208622.post-74651456974157047282015-08-25T21:55:19.307-07:002015-08-25T21:55:19.307-07:00Have you been to the Grand Canyon?

The prison is very moving. Did you know that the dead were buried shoulder to shoulder?
