    Someone must have read my mind! I was looking at free quilt blocks tonight on a site (www.ideas-for-quilting.com) and wondering. I got The Triplet. BUT The Big Dipper: Where's anything that looks like a dipper? Crow's Nest: I don't see a crow OR a nest.

    Well, I was going to mention the town of Climax and googled it so I'd put the correct state and guess what!
    Climax is located in: Georgia, Minnisota, Michigan, Colorado, North Carolina, and Texas (that I know of!!)

    whooooeeee....
