Quilt Barn Square 15

Time for the Barn Collective series over at Tom's.  

I'm linking up with him again today.
 This Barn Quilt is on the machine shed at the farm of
Joe and Mary Stanton located on Bittinger Road just north of Bittinger.
The Amish Dahlia block was sponsored by the Heritage Quilters,
a local quilters group.  It is in memory of Maxine LeGeer, who lived near by.
The barn was built in 1864 and the farm has been in the family for
seven generations.   The last 25 years it has been a dairy farm.

 This snowy barn picture I took the other day on my morning walk.

This morning was a cloudy one and 32 degrees but no wind.

Had another walk all around town and the cemeteries

and the ball park loop.

Went a ways up Barn Sale too and down toward Happy Trails

before turning around and heading back home.

Kathy was in town walking again.  I didn't see her last week because

as I thought she was out of town for Thanksgiving.

Chuck from church was in town again doing work for someone in town

and he stopped to say hi.

Walked 6.6 miles

Found a penny

While we were eating breakfast I got a text from our son, David.

He was a few hours away on his way to New Jersey

and said he'd be here for lunch.  😊

This morning I made the last batch of the Welsh Cookies for the

sale on Saturday.  Nice that there were an extra dozen for us to keep.

David arrived around 11:30 and we had a nice lunch and are enjoying
having him here with us.  We don't get to see him that often.
He plans on staying for a couple of days.  😊

It was a pretty warm day so we took advantage of it this afternoon

and put up some outside Christmas blue icicle lights.  

Not a lot just a couple of strings across the top of the porch.
At least that's a start!
 
A happy day to you.
