Morning! Thanks SnowYes it was a really fun and memorbale weekend. I'm happy to hear you enjoyed yours too. What was the Pines Festival like? Did you buy anything? Have a good day at work!
Thanks! It was a wonderful festival! They had a lot of art, crafts, woodwork, jewelry, food, candles, soaps, etc. I didn't buy anything this time around, trying to save money. But I could've spent a lot!!
Hope you have a great day, too!!

Look at all those cute graphics you share with us! That's important, too! Oh, and all those cakes. Words/posts aren't any more important than that. I think the key word is "share." Did you notice that I award "prizes" based on a milestone number to which we all contribute and not on the highest number of posts per person? And a lot of those posts are from our "clicking" our thanks when we don't have time to respond to anything more than a quick thanks of acknowledgement. I know that you have "won" quite a few of those milestone prizes because you were here with us when you were able. Each of us just share when we can. I can share more because I am now retired, but when I was working, I was not able to share as much. We are under no obligation to reach a personal quota. One thing I have noticed is that we are really "sharing" what is important in our lives and what is important with our MMC family and not padding our posts with "fluff" that has no meaning. To me, what is important is our "membership" in this family where each of us is as important as the others.
I'm jealous, I have had so little time to spend here and all this talk of how many post people are making has me feeling kind of sad and left out :-?
I am glad to do some quick read thoughs and see that everyone is well and some have returned which is totally awesome!
Now I am off to bed because I have a early day tomorrow.
Good morning! Hope you all have a great day!

I love this photo, aaahhhhh Fall, cool days, and the musty smell of fallen leaves, and the trees having been kissed by the rays of the sun........lovin it!
.......love the earthy , musty scent of fallen leaves.....not to mention the crunching sound it makes when you walk over it.
Totally agree with you there.........something soothing about Fall, the busy summer has ended and now we can get into the "relax mode of the coming seasons. Time for quiet contemplation, writing, baking, and just taking life a little bit slower. I love all the seasons, each one comes at the appropriate time to refresh us one and all!
Have a great day!
Good morning, all
Quickly popping in before I have to drop off the boys at my in-laws house and head to work. It is the last day of summer vacation for JP, so the real fun will begin tomorrow when it's time to wrangle him out the door in time. I have my inventory tonight so I work this evening and tomorrow evening, but I have this upcoming weekend off so 2 nights in one week is fine with me. Our local orchard opens for business this Saturday, my wife wants to go there and see if they have a Halloween tree to decorate in the house for October, she has been wanting one for a few years now, and after Labor Day it is free game to start decorating for Fall/Harvest/Halloween. cheesy
Have a great day!!!

Morning ! A Halloween tree sounds so fun. Post us a pic please! Hope JP has a good first day back tomorrow.
Welcome to the Countdown!!!!
It's always nice to see new "faces" in this thread, I hope you post often!
I am with you on the open latticework for afghans; however I did use it on a long skirt I crocheted as a welcome-home outfit for me to wear when my (then) husband came home from overseas. I wore a body suit the same color as the skirt, hose that were the same color, and shoes that matched in color. This was back in 1972.
Speaking of fall colors, I bought a skein of Red Heart Fall (0981) variegated yarn and Red Heart Grape Fizz (3931) yesterday to do a test piece of each to see if I liked those colors. The Grape Fizz is jeweled tone. I want to make an afghan for Lily (my granddaughter). Her favorite color is purple, so I think she will like it. I will do a ripple along the lines of what we discussed regarding the rainbow variegated.
I was going to copy and paste a pic, but I am on my iPad and don't know how to do that without the Control key.

Love your description. The smell of fall leaves is one of my favorites. As a teenager, Golden Autumn by Prince Matchabelli was one of my cologne favorites; and I also love the song "Autumn Leaves."
