My quest in creating and posting one block a day of the fabulous That Town And Country Quilt by the lovely Susan Claire. For a gallery index showing every block in the quilt in chronological order, click here.
I hope if someone needs something beyond their scope they refer that vacationer to Granby businesses. The General Store is just one of the amenities out there, along with a mini-bowling alley, arcade, workout area, and community center.
The windows were broken and the roof leaked. An arts group that wanted a venue for the performing arts saw potential in this grand old building. They did lots of fundraising and then they managed to get a patron that had very deep pockets. After many hours of volunteer work and some paid structural work, it was ready to shine.
It’s grown to be quite a large tree with large branches. I’ve asked to have the branches trimmed twice so that my window can be seen from the street. There is kind of a love/hate relationship with my tree for me. I love how pretty it is and the shade it gives in the summer.
Because I grew up and lived on a farm our dogs were Border Collies. Our Borders were not social with each other, they got along but didn’t depend on each other for company or entertainment. They were working dogs and preferred interaction with their person.
Groups like this are common at River Run. The terrain has highs and lows that offer spots where trees grow well. The whole area is beautiful and the designers want to give a “back to nature” feel. Trees are so important to this atmosphere. They provide shade, color, and life.
Today I continue my quest in creating and posting one block a day of the fabulous That Town And Country Quilt by the lovely Susan-Claire Mayfield. This is day two hundred and seventy of that project. River Run has a very nice pool. There is a hot tub and a wide concrete apron with tables and chairs. I love being in …
I am not a camper. I don’t sleep in a tent, I don’t cook over fire, I don’t poop in the woods. But… I think I might like camping with electricity, a bed with sheets, a bathroom and hot water, you know glamping.
These boots remind me of the ones my husband wore every day. He always wore steel toe Red Wings. The only time I ever saw him in anything else was when we were on vacation at the beach. He was barefoot then. Everyone who knew him well used to kid him about his “Lil’ Abner” boots.
This cute little tepee reminded me that they have a really nice playground at River Run. I am meeting people all the time in the shop that are staying at the park and they sure seem to have a good time.
It’s a beautiful site and they have done some interesting and amazing things there. In the next few days we’ll check it out. This development has changed our little town and will continue to do so. It will be interesting to see what happens in the next few years.
