There was a quilt of Mt Shasta (My favorite mountain) that I really wanted bad. It was being raffled of by the Mt Shasta museum years ago. I bought 100 tickets. I was devastated when I lost. Should have bought a thousand tickets. I finally could a lady who worked on it and she offered to make make me one but it never happened. Ive begged the museum director, Chamber of Commerce, ladies at the quilting society or whatever it’s called to make another one but all dead ends. They won’t tell me who won it or even contact them on my behalf to see if they would sell it.

@jakedduck1 We drove past Mount Shasta on our way up here it was still covered with snow from the Memorial Day storm. I will have to take a look and see about drafting something up to do for you!

@jakedduck1 Good morning! Are you always so down on yourself or is it just an act?? Most of the time you come across as a very caring, loving man who is devoted to his mom. And a funny man! Maybe you’re just giving us a hard time—are you? I do like you, though. You’ve dealt with lots of life’s problems and always seem to come out on top. You’re someone to be admired (even if you don’t like to cook)! P.S. I can’t draw a straight line, either!

@gingerw Maybe @jakedduck1 could draw it for you!!!

@gingerw The closest I came to quilting was I tied the knots oue church had quilts for projects to give to hospitals . It was fun. My Mom did quilt. I did vacation around Lancaster Pa where we saw some beautiful quilts the Amish did

@gingerw My son is hiking from Yosemite to Mt Shasta a 250 mile hike 3 weeks he,ll be gone . I,ll have to email him about the snow but it might be gone by the time they get there . I pray everytime he goes hiking and that's every summer.

@gingerw beautiful! And it looks like it’s only 1 floor! Perfect

Nope, sadly it’s no act. I frequently say “It is what it is.” My Dad could do anything, sometimes I think I must be adopted to be so untalented. But I accept the way things are, no biggie. I’m as untalented as they come, it’s just a fact. I nearly burnt our house down three different times, stove fire, electrical fire and when a candle caught the mantle on fire. I’m accident prone too. I almost blew up my friends house when I ran into their gas meter and windows were open along that side of the house. She had a gas stove with pilot lights burning but the fireman got there quick and prevented that disaster. I broke my neighbors sliding glass door and fell through my friends living room ceiling. My Guardian Angel plucked me from the Pacific Ocean, kept me from going off Mt Shasta, I should have been a goner. He kept me unharmed when I fell off my roof, tree & latter. I was obviously being protected during seizures when I nearly walked into the Grand Canyon, walked off El Capitan in Yosemite. So many times. My guardian Angel definitely has a full time job keeping me safe. Sometimes I wonder if God sends Guardian angels to protects me so well because they fear I’d be to much of a menace in Heaven. I use to be able to cook and bake pretty good but fortunately those skills went by the wayside,
so there has been good luck too, lol.
