I am not sure it will work now but let's try. All is well in the Adirondacks. Summer is leaving and our area can get quiet again. Meanwhile I am doing all kinds of stitching and loving every minute.

Hot, humid with a chance of rain. I am spending time home with the air conditioner most of the time. Not to worry because there is plenty of things to do around the house. Early mornings are spent cleaning the garage. It seems that over the winter things pile up and now need cleaning out. After some time in the garage, I get back to stitching. Last week I did get my Daddy's chair delivered to camp. It will be my new stitching spot over there.<div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEigi4KEak1hcrN2gwX5KaX9yTPFt7jDLE6fjrq7J-B_3QdmmUZW_UjSvsQIq3vkqkrVDEBAHwekQWHoc0l97xswtmBVdiNoUi_9OTNpAIA4wA6R92-cvsNDRMNS4JiKQZRmBqgrsGIg5As/s640/blogger-image-89596870.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEigi4KEak1hcrN2gwX5KaX9yTPFt7jDLE6fjrq7J-B_3QdmmUZW_UjSvsQIq3vkqkrVDEBAHwekQWHoc0l97xswtmBVdiNoUi_9OTNpAIA4wA6R92-cvsNDRMNS4JiKQZRmBqgrsGIg5As/s640/blogger-image-89596870.jpg"></a></div><br></div><div>There is a book shelf on one side, a magazine rack on the other side.

There was a brisk wind off the river and that made it too cold to sit on the porch. So I went inside to clean up a bit, put things away and to read for a bit. Yes, I do take stitching with me. I love to stitch in the porch in direct sunshine. I plan on doing a lot of stitching there. Temperatures are warming and there is hope.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">What do I work in next?</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqxHFA_GGCZJgIySHxDacEeAQmzTHRyE3Z4UwKM_T8b5rNztSH3Sr78I_4C99a3XLz5JIFCNrYSUXL9L3NkzLAox8uW9lwQDibXBuyu2hMTs6bt8_L6LDTcWXYt4WvlpOxxoyYjRGfOTU/s640/blogger-image--1457025195.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqxHFA_GGCZJgIySHxDacEeAQmzTHRyE3Z4UwKM_T8b5rNztSH3Sr78I_4C99a3XLz5JIFCNrYSUXL9L3NkzLAox8uW9lwQDibXBuyu2hMTs6bt8_L6LDTcWXYt4WvlpOxxoyYjRGfOTU/s640/blogger-image--1457025195.jpg"></a></div><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjUzFdugHgs89LjlhN5LvcY2rKsh1-mTR9gNQeIi4KOCTuuzZTtS1AQQCS9jXaW7FkOAz1JAkaobzeLmMlZoNV5L7DwTp_BOF0O3TECume4THZR3Yt8kDvaiatLlM67fPBDs37u9jJ7GPE/s640/blogger-image--1732783538.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjUzFdugHgs89LjlhN5LvcY2rKsh1-mTR9gNQeIi4KOCTuuzZTtS1AQQCS9jXaW7FkOAz1JAkaobzeLmMlZoNV5L7DwTp_BOF0O3TECume4THZR3Yt8kDvaiatLlM67fPBDs37u9jJ7GPE/s640/blogger-image--1732783538.jpg"></a></div><br></div>Taffyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02937526411997893877noreply@blogger.com2
