And I just wanted to thank you for the sweet things you said about me losing my Dad. Yes, he was awesome...handsome, kind-hearted and fun. We had him a long time, and for that I am grateful. Many of your comments have made me realize that you and I have a lot in common. I feel a connection.A Colorful Worldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06890388727784255219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6640847503018468156.post-21664865097070203582015-01-24T07:52:13.778-05:002015-01-24T07:52:13.778-05:00I meant to tell you, my hubby being a Virginian, w...I meant to tell you, my hubby being a Virginian, we always remember Lee-Jackson Day!

Here! :-) I remember well having to deal with all that in Florida, and in Va. too since we were on the coast many times. Heavy snow storm too...yep. Well, stay dry & warm! <br /><br />LOVED the funny dash cam! I posted it to my facebook! :-) Oh, and we have been to 4 of those historic sites, but I was ashamed to see we had only seen 4. We love history so much, and now we won't be back in Virginia much, if at all, and that makes me sad!<br /><br />Not joining in today...have the Quilt Fiesta to work, after my hubby's Dr. appt. and I thought I'd just wait till next week. I'll visit everyone though!
