Blogs Read - Crafts and Crocheting

(Avon Park, FL) Hi 77 Lo 60 -- I got caught up on blogs this morning. It's been awhile since I've read most of them. It's great to know which direction people are going for the winter.

There's a few people drifting into park for short term stays. We saw this RV come in for a couple nights. I love the way they carry their car on the bed of the truck. But this wouldn't work for us. I like driving behind Jim.










This afternoon was crafts. I've always wanted to make a glass box with lights in it. They're so pretty. Today was my chance. We had a whole table of decorations to choose from.



















There were quite a few of us making them, either for themselves or for others.

 

Another lady made this one. It was so cute I had to take a picture of it.

















I made mine with a cardinal since we're St. Louis Cardinal fans.














I relaxed with my crocheting today. I'll have a picture of that progress tomorrow.  Jim went with our neighbor Judy to the bridge group to see about learning how to play bridge. They found out there will be a beginners class in January. I went over later to play out regular games, 3 to13 and chase the ace.

Another great day in paradise.

Those glass blocks are so cool but I can't believe how heavy they are! I looked at doing one today and decided against it due to the weight. We're too close to our max to take the chance :(

Your box looks really pretty. I would love to camp at a campground that has regular craft sessions!

You are so crafty! I have never had any talent in that area. I can't keep up with all my blogs either. I don't know how I used to do it.

I was curious if you ever thought of changing the structure of your

site? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say.
But maybe you could a little more in the way
of content

so people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful
lot of text for only having one or two

pictures. Maybe you could space it out better?

My coder is trying to persuade me to move to .
net from PHP. I have always disliked the

idea because of the expenses. But he's tryiong none the less. I've been
using Movable-type on a variety of websites for about a year and am worried about

switching to another platform. I have heard very good things about blogengine.
net. Is

there a way I can import all my wordpress content into it?
Any help would be

greatly appreciated!
