I admire how organized and efficient you are. You've created a mini home away from home in your hotel. No wonder you are always so relaxed and enjoy your trips.<br /><br />But..about unpacking...are you concerned with the hype on television and internet about hotel creepy crawlies? I know, I am.Gailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04003204378492456488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-43646554963990891442011-02-12T07:57:17.433-05:002011-02-12T07:57:17.433-05:00Bonnie, you are so blessed.

I love the mountains (see them most days from my little town in the foothills of North Carolina). I have family that live in Roanoke and travel there several times a year. I've not been to Lexington in over 30 years so don't really remember it. Have so much fun, your set up is about as big as my whole crafting room.<br /><br />Wanda<br />http://wandas-quilts-crafts.blogspot.com/Wandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00265649333964128746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-8081902062633060422011-02-12T07:42:27.082-05:002011-02-12T07:42:27.082-05:00Now I understand why my Blue Ridge Beauty turned o...Now I understand why my Blue Ridge Beauty turned out so well.

I hope you can make it back downtown in the spring and summer and see all the farmers and artisans set up. Live music, ice cream made before your eyes, and warm kettle corn-DANGEROUS!
