Re: Bingo - Let's Learn About Virginia! (Tenth Numbers Up!)
What a weekend!! We were buried under snow, lost power, and then the forum went down! :tizzy: I saw on another thread that Debby (our beloved fccs) is having troubles accessing the site. So, to maintain fairness, I'll suspend the game just another day, hopefully she'll be able to make it back soon. ...

Re: Stay Safe in the Snow/Blizzards
I made it through! Our snow turned to sleet and freezing rain on Friday evening, leading to a power outage for about 8 hours. I'm not quite sure, as I went to sleep and woke up to lights. Much praising of our power company for being out in the mess to restore it as quickly as possible! School's out ...

Re: Bingo - Let's Learn About Virginia! (Ninth Numbers Up!)
Happy Thursday! So glad you're enjoying the facts. I must say, compiling these and finding relevant photos, etc. is really fun. I've also managed to tie this into my son's Virginia History curriculum, and he has really gotten into finding videos on YouTube for me to share. Today's numbers, including...

Re: Stitchin' With Josie (Updated - Jan 3, 2016)
Closing in on two weeks of work with the Mermaid. I'm taking my time, and this time around the parking technique has been a godsend. When I made working copies I split the large pages (they're about 11" x 17" I think) in two. Last night I completed the first row, and I'm about halfway thro...
