Love it. And kinda jealous. I've always wanted a north country cottage. My own cottage-y home has ended up more English country than northwoods due to what I have inherited. At some point though, hubs and I would like to at least redo the master bedroom with a north country decorating vibe. The closest hubs and I will probably get to the north country cottage is a camper which is in our long range plan.

I've been getting suspicious emails from myself....HAHA! But, when I hover my cursor over the address, it only just says it's from me but the real email address is some other address, not me at all. So, check to see if the address is even really hers. It may just say "mustangs" in the from area but isn't "mustangs" at all.

I love posts like this!!! How nice to have been given something so useful and that it's still up and running. I too have been given very thoughtful gifts......yeast from Costco when yeast was unavailable early in the pandemic and a sleek pair of kitchen shears! I love our CF community.

Thank you, Flora. It is the pictures I wish I had saved. I could write the stories over almost word for word. I didn't really write them for a book....mostly wrote them for my friends. I originally wrote them on the old Meeting House forum. Altho no one uses the forum aymore and it was moved to FB, I can still access the old Tapatalk forum. I may go find the stories there, altho the pics won't show because they were uploaded for posting on Tinypic. There was a story about a horse named Wizard, some pigeons, some possum stories, a dog that raised a raccoon, the raccoons in general, a raccoon named Ninny, a possum named Woaches, a possum named Pickles, and one named Shirley. Yet to write is Emery's story, Piggy Sue's story...a feral hogs that I raised as a pet ( had her spayed, etc), Bane's story (my literally crazy horse), and probably some more. I also wrote my own life story because that was something we did on that original forum. I really don't have anyone to share my stories with because I have almost no family. One daughter...no grandchildren. No immediate family. It isn't like anyone will remember me after I am gone, and I say that not in a sad way....just matter of fact. Anyway, I have 3 or 4 of the original stories, with pictures because I shared them with sjerin. I wish I hadn't got distracted by something else and shared the rest of them while I could still get to to them.
