Lace and now it is snowing...Big flakes

100_4763

Had to get out of the house for awhile, it is so cloudy and wet… I was feeling cloudy. I decided to go to a couple of second hand stores and look at books. I love buying a book that cost new $30.00 and I get it for a dollar or two. It looked like they were bringing in some new things so I went to where they have ribbon and threads and found all this lace for five dollars. I have been trying to find lace at a good price for crafts, and Bingo, I found some. Less cloudy I took my moody self home and really enjoyed what I had found. If anyone has some lace they would like to sell, I am interested. Now what to make!!!100_4760

Researching family makes each person very real…Dotson line. I was thinking.

West Virginia 001 Today I spent a lot of time on the old Puter looking for family long ago and so far away…you could say they are long gone. But they are be coming very dear to me. The stories, the places they lived. This cabin is under construction. Nothing that will change it, things that will keep it from falling apart. This is in West Virginia . This is the Dotson Cabin. Built by family that I will never know, but they are apart of my family. What is really exciting is to find the people that lived here, one by one.x5JaLXDadnXXrOPe_h_N9kuNNgxbPuHUeYjt!B9HKw07CXPbJu!1tVxjyLn1dT2f Dotson Cabin
