​Notes from the Stone House

Making room

 So Jay and I moved into the big stone house in 2013. That is almost 4 years ago now! There are STILL boxes that we have not opened or unpacked from our move. We worked hard to pack everything and make sure that it got from the old apartment to the new house with out breaking and yet we never unpacked it! (Do most people have this problem?) Anyways, we decided, after 4 years, that it was time to start de-cluttering the big stone house!

We are now working on re-purposing our guest room into a history room/craft room. I am so excited that we will finally have space to do crafts (not on the floor in the living room or the table in the dinning room!) We will also have space to store all our gear between events... because you know the garage sometimes makes too much sense. I have been walking around all the trunks/baskets and clothes for 2 weeks now because, again, we had no real home for any of it.

Speaking of events, we have one next weekend!  The event will be at Fort Frederick and it will be one of the many Garrison Weekends they host.  Jay and I will be under the nice new fly. He will be making spoons and selling any that we have finished. I will be weaving - find your tape needs now as I will have a wide variety available. 

The fort is a HUGE stone fort, located in a very beautiful part of  Maryland. The fort was build to help protect the settlers in the area from potential Native Raids. It did what it was designed to do,then it was used in the revolutionary war and in the War of American Independence...and now it's a historic park. Here is a map for you to find your way... I don't give directions - I want you to get to the event!
