Hi Vanessa,

I don't know your brother. My husband and I live in Grantsburg part time. We built a home on my husband's grandfather's land. He bought the land in 1911. Our main address is in La Grange, Illinois. However, if I do run into your brother, I will let him know that we are quiltboard friends. Thanks for sharing. Y

It was -17 this morning at 6:30 AM when I took my hubby to work and up to 0 when I picked him up. The wind was really cold, too.

Thanks. I was feeling pretty chilly here on my ridge where it was 2° this morning, but now know I have no reason to complain.
