Getting Out of Dodge

January in Penn's Woods.... Bears know enough to Hibernate, but the silly Humans don't know how. But the Humans invented Trains and Boats and Planes. So Lew and Katz blasted off with Marco&Scape for Florida. Jan, Trista and Cordelia will use the Tin Bird and they will all warm up.... at Walt Disney World.
When Lew and Katz left it was -8DegF. Seventy Per was the rule-of-the-day (couldn't get out of Dodge fast enough). Only got 10MPG at that speed. Didn't care.
Now that's a sight for sore eyes!
Almost Home. The entrance to Fort Wilderness, our favorite Camp Ground. Right in the middle of Walt Disney World.
Loyal Fans may want to know why a Blog Post has been slow in coming. Lew was busy. You see, Cordelia wanted a Bedroom. So a "Patty O' Room" was purchased to add to Marco's Awning. When installed it creates an outside room. The "when installed" part took some time, work and even some redesign.
Marco with the new Patty O' Room addition set up at Fort Wilderness, Site 1629. Ready for soon to be arriving Guests.
Cordelia has a bed (and so does Mommy).
Just outside Marco's door.

Christmas Gift Projects

Click on a PIC to enlarge it. Cordelia wanted to make a Purse as a Gift for her Mommy. She wanted it to have a pretty Embroidery on it, and she thought her Aunt Amy could help her with the Sewing. She picked the Pattern and the Material. She and Grandma cut out the pieces and Machine Embroidered the front.
Later Lew and Katz Machine Embroidered what would be the back.
Then Aunt Amy and Uncle Chris made the Loong Drive from Western Massachusetts....
...and the Christmas Elves went to Work on the Christmas Gift Project.
On Christmas Eve the Stockings were hung by the Chimney with Care.
Christmas Eve is also the time for another Project, the assembling of complicated Toys. Grandma was called in to help with Playmobil Noah's Ark (notice the Cat watching). Soon it was Christmas Morning....
....and time to open Gifts....
....and time to Play with Gifts. This little scene took Grandma and Grandpa back many years (Adam and Amy playing).
Finally Cordelia gave her Gift to Mommy.
Aunt Amy had been working on a Sewing Project of her own, a Big Girl Quilt for Cordelia (whose favorite color is Red).
Later Dana received the Christmas Gift Project Chris had been working on, his own Webpage.
