Hi Folks...



I hate math...I always have.




Peter and Hannah are brilliant when it comes to solving math problems...
I have trouble figuring out change.
...with a calculator.




so here is an EASY math quiz for you!




One Huge White Dog
+
3 days of Soaking Rain
+
One 1/4 acre Freshly Tilled Garden
+
Virginia's Infamous Red Clay Soil

Answer: =







... pretty, isn't he?

yeah...and he's all mine.

I don't know if he'll ever be white again...
and he looks like he's got a big old pricker-stick stuck to him....

ahhh...the wonderful, wet woods of Notforgotten Farm....


On another note...
Remember in a previous post that I mentioned a
BIG SURPRISE?

Hiya dear Lori ...

Hmmm.. wonder if I could fit into my son's suitcase when he goes back to Kentucky for his 2nd year at College... failing that, maybe the exchange rate will dramatically increase...LOL...

Oh, and by the way....I just LOVE your fabby pup... he is gorgeous..and by the looks of him..mischievous as well...LOL

The gathering sounds wonderful!! I wish I were closer where I could be a part of it...as a vendor & a shopper!! I've often thought about hosting one myself...we have THE perfect spot for it here on our farm! Maybe one of these years!

Ya gotta love that sweet Buddy-boy!! My pup isn't muddy but she IS cranky because she can't get out much to play.
I'll talk to you next weekend about your show. It really sounds like fun!!

Hi Lori - I'm a fan of your hooked patterns - doing Merrie Halloween now - I am going to the ATHA rug hooking national in Louisville around that time - Maybe I can plan a side trip to visit your gathering - sounds fabulous.

Hi Lori,

I've been wanting to visit your shop for the longest time. Autumn is my favorite season and Halloween is my favorite holiday! I'm making my plans to visit the gathering on Set. 19th. What a wonderful way to begin my favorite time of the year!
