It never left from here....

and more last night. Another snow storm with winds over night starting off as sleet and then snow. Tough to shovel this morning especially where the snow plow left a big dump of hard, crusty slushy like stuff.across the driveway. At least I didn't have to do a full out shoveling job - only the driveway and front sidewalk. I figure that the rest all around the house can just wait until it melts.
Today we went to an Amish Quilting Bee.  It was advertised in the paper to take place at the Library in Powassan (three towns north towards North Bay)  I was going to go but when I saw the weather this morning, I decided not to try the roads. But Harry said he would drive me so off we went. There is a very large Amish community in this area including  horse and buggies for transportation. Their hand made wood furniture is always on show at all the fairs etc with showrooms right in the town of Powassan. Anyway the newspaper stated ".....see how to put a quilt on a frame,and hand quilt. You can observe, or if you wish, help with quilting."  We got there in plenty of time but it was already in business with approx 15 ladies seated around the frame all doing some stitching on the borders. It was a tumbling block patterned quilt. About six Amish ladies were in attendance, and many others seated with more people coming in, it was a sort of musical chairs. We just looked on with interest but as the room became overflowing, we left. Maybe only there about 30  minutes?  But, it was an outing of interest for me and glad I went even if somewhat disappointing in terms of a real learning opportunity.
After supper tonight I took the dog for a walk down to the lake. This is the first time in a few months that we have walked. Over the last months with the cold temps we have just gone out in the yard. It felt good to get back into the habit - I have missed these walks a great deal.
Hoping your day today Pati, was successful, and now you can relax a bit. And to you both, hope your weekend will be just fine! Take care
