Seasons come and go, with each one comes new and different elements. Tonight, it is snowing which is always exciting for the first snow. I always loved snow except in the 70’s and 80’s when we got too much. Back in the 50’s we used to walk to school, we had ¾ Mile to go in a 1 room school house. Now back to the snow Fox and Goose was often played and one of my favorite games. Many paths were made and then the tail which consisted of a spiral circle and the base was in the middle. Oh, what fun we had and great memories we made. Are some of the old simple games being lost?
In the canvas shop we are winding down for the year. Boat covers are still going strong and lots of things to be covered up, but guess what? February is just around the corner, but winter does give us a little chance to sew some tarps. We do our own heat sealing. So, we can make tarps ahead of time. Helps a lot on the spring rush, it also gives us a chance to spend a few weeks in Florida :)
