My first time on a blog....


Wow! I think I did it. Hey Ashley you said I could. Thank you for talking me into this. Well today I'm in Newport, RI. It's cold and snowing. I love it.

We are to get another couple of inches. I've tried to explain the "sound of after the snow" to my husband. To go out into the woods after a fresh snow. The silence that surrounds you, to hear the plop of a bit of snow hit the ground falling from a tree. The crunch of the sound of your own walking... It must be experienced to know it.

I think I'll spend most of the day here in our hotel room knitting. I've been making new things all week. From practicing doing my cables and dbl. needles to making fingerless mittens.

Last weekend Lester and I went over to Conn. and found a potter. He was great. We talked to him about his selfmade wood kiln. I want one!!!! He had some beautiful stuff.

I thank the Lord for the blessings he has given to us. Remember, " Be Sillent and know that I am God." This helps me all the time to remember to stop, slow down my mind and remember Him.
