Hello....I've just joined this board, sounds like a fun and informative place to be. I am married, retired, live in Northeast Minnesota with two beautiful female cats we just adopted from the local shelter...I've been quilting for about 3 years and last year won a blue ribbon and a judges choice ribbon in our regional fair....that was so exciting!

Hi and welcome from Duluth. DH almost drove through (on Hwy 135) your hometown yesterday . We celebrated our anniversary with a trip to Ely then went to the Whistling Bird for dinner. Our first time eating there and eating Caribbean jerk food. Loved it!

Ginny...this isn't actually my home town....we moved here from Minneapolis when we both retired 6 years ago. We found 40 acres of great land, built a modular home and are just enjoying the rest of our lives doing what we want...well, pretty much what we want.....
Embarrass is also know as the coldest spot in the US..the first winter we were here it was -54 and it was fun to hear from all of our "Southern" friends about how crazy we are!!! But we love it here.

Hello, and welcome from Missouri! I was just in Thief River Falls this last weekend visitng cousins and for a funeral. I hadn't been up there for a while and forgot how flat it is around the Agassiz Wild Life Preserve.
I saw lots of quilt shops, but didn't have time for any shopping this trip.
