This is my little pile of 20 blocks made while up at the cabin for the past couple of days…20 is a good number!

I’ve now got them pinned in two sets of 10 to add to the other stack of blocks I finished over Christmas – which inadvertently got left back at the house. Ahhhhh the trials of having two sewing areas – some stuff always gets left at the other place!

I don’t even remember how many I was shooting for, or how many I have already done. 

But just to let you know that I am keeping myself a bit BALANCED in my endeavor to FINISH…I broke away from the sewing machine and hit the road with Sadie…she LOVES it up here!

Her nose goes crazy the moment we turn off the main road and begin our way up the mountain.

Window down – HEAD OUT!

Sadie says, “Let’s GO, Mama!  Hike Faster!!”

Things were peaceful by the pond….

I find it amazing that the pond was completely frozen over on Wednesday when DH was up here for the shed installation during the great “Polar Vortex of 2014” – and just a few days later – it’s thawed out again!

I love the pines ---down home, everything is hard woods so there is no green in our naked trees during the winter months.  The lovely greens of the pines, the moss, the lichen up here---helps me hold on til spring!

We walked by a burbling creek –glistening in the dappled sunlight.

 

Crossed under “low clearance” trees on a hiking trail ---

And went until the trail ended!

We even took a break to ride 4 wheelers!!

The beauty of nature ---what could be better?

Okay, more time up here could be better, but  I’m glad we got a couple days up here.  It’s time to pack the pick up with everything that needs to go home and head back down the mountain  ---With the way my schedule is running, it will be February before I’m able to be back –

I’ll be counting down the days!
