I have just caught up here, and will try to touch on a few things. First, my gosh, how sickened we have been to witness all of the unrest in our world. In France, and many other places. It is a huge concern for all. My heart goes out to those who have been affected. <br />Your photos of Oregon Fall Splendor are so lovely!!! And yes, nothing like a warm cozy fire. We just had our wood delivery, as we Roo enjoy an almost nightly fire.

Our neighbors had three huge forty year old blue spruce trees blow over exposing the root balls. One of them hit the power lines and we were without power for a few hours. It was kind of fun sitting in the dark and just visiting. Best part . . . no one got hurt:) <br />I love the colors of your yarn and I'm looking froward to seeing your new scarf.<br />Have a happy weekend!<br />Connie :)Conniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08187302890702147585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8865022255438031627.post-25417375195634176942015-11-19T16:26:51.671-08:002015-11-19T16:26:51.671-08:00We had quite the storm here on Tuesday (and last w...We had quite the storm here on Tuesday (and last week as well) fortunately no power loss for us this time!

We lost power, several times, albeit for just moments. Turns out the wind brought down a big limb onto the power line.

We lost our power for over 18 hours. We also lost about half of the shingles on our roof. But that's still not as bad as some other homes in our area who lost everything down to the plywood on the roofs.. Trees down, fences down . It basically looks like a war zone over here. Glad you're OK. Your hitchhiker shawl is looking great! Obviously with all the mittens I have to make I won't be able to join in now like I wanted to. Stay warm. <br />Blessings, Betsy Betsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00807691752817225336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8865022255438031627.post-35049415493458947532015-11-18T13:21:21.675-08:002015-11-18T13:21:21.675-08:00I am glad that you kept safe and warm during the s...I am glad that you kept safe and warm during the storm, shame that it threw off your knitting though! xxAmy at love made my homehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17111180584250029433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8865022255438031627.post-89027204926525004522015-11-18T12:37:34.109-08:002015-11-18T12:37:34.109-08:00Im with you!
