Changing Weather

 Such a beautiful day today.  Sunny but cool and windy.  The kids are outside playing in the sunshine and don't mind the cold.  Me, I'm just hanging around the house after morning errands.  Changed the quilts on the big bed this week.  I really wanted to use my scrappy pandemic quilts on our bed....

Recently downloaded Bonnie Hunter's Appalachian Autumn quilt pattern.  I started it but not sure I'll make the full quilt.  Not committing to anything quilty at the moment.

Just finished a memory quilt for a sweet couple who lost their 21 year old son a year and a half ago.

The DIL and the kiddos painted pumpkins a few days ago.

The blue/green is Haddon's of course.  Blue is his favorite color.

These little ones keep us hoppin'!

Blowing Rock, NC

 The hubby and I went on a short fall getaway last week.  We traveled through the smokies into Cherokee, NC, and Maggie Valley, to Asheville, and then up to Blowing Rock, NC in the High Country.

We stayed at the historic Green Park Inn.  Established in 1882.

There was lots of history to learn about in the hotel.

Tweetsie Railroad wasn't open, along with several other attractions but we still stopped in for a look.

There were a lot of beautiful churches in the area.

This marina was on the way home.  We had to stop and check it out.  A new lake for the hubs to fish!

I just loved this little home.  With the cute quilt block, and the sign, "Everything will be ok."  Love it.

It was a nice, short trip.  Saw some beautiful scenery and buildings.
