| I am returning after being off the connection for a couple of years. Have to admit I have ventured on once in awhile to see what you all are up to..what books, crafts, etc. Still great fun! I just checked out Melodynotes blog. What truly pretty embroidery and handwork. That is my favorite needlework to do. I am not as prolific as Melody though. I love to read just about anything. I live on a wooded acreage. No pets. Lots of wild visitors..deer, turkey, fox, rabbits, squirrels of course. Many birds at the feeders, eagles passing through, hawks, even a few falcons. Definitely have spring fever. I work part-time at a county extension office..so learn something new every day, and meet a lot of really wonderful people. |

Welcome back! Glad you decided to return! I love Melody's blog too. The farmgirls here are so incredibly talented, interesting and supportive. I have learned a lot from them too!
Spring is avoiding us in the Chicago area today, but we should warm up to the 40's for the weekend!

Welcome and yes, Heather, I was wondering the same thing since I am formerly from Iowa. Also....what is Melody's blog? I'd like to take a look! Come back often!

Hi from another Iowa farmgirl, I have been through Nora Springs as my husband is from Mason City. We visit his relatives often. I live near Cedar Rapids. Welcome!
Happiness is having farmgirl friends. |

Welcome back! I lived in Iowa City for a few years..have many friends there still that I have recently reconnected with on Facebook! So happy you have wandered back to this home!! I LOVED living in Iowa..As a matter of fact I think that's where my farmgirl itch first became a real way of life for me! Blessings to you! ~julia

My dad's side of the family owned a farm near Joice, not far from Mason City. I have been there many times! Love Iowa.

Well Jeannie and Julia and all you Iowa gals....I lived in Swisher (1/2 way between Iowa City and Cedar Rapids) and worked in Iowa City. My family still lives in Cedar Rapids, my daughter is a teacher there, a son lives there and another son lives in Tipton....I lived out in the country there for 20 years on my little "farmette" and it is a great state!
