Congrats to Connie Jo9, enjoy your crown, you are so deserving. I chose this card to case. I love old trucks and it was quick to catch my eye. I plan on visiting Fred, she said to see what else they have to offer.
also for today F4A14 , to make a masculine type card
My Story, When I met my DH he lived in NM, I lived in Florida. After marriage he moved to Florida with me. Over the years while visiting NM and CO, he has taken me to the La Plata mountains. After 3 visits I have yet to make it to the top. Also on one trip to Ouray CO, we had rented a 4x4 and took the boys on an adventure up a mountain. One of the scariest things I have ever done. It started to snow, in the middle of summer, ( whats up with that? ) and again we didn't make it to the top.. I'm a big chicken... So it has been a running joke for the last 17 years, that I have yet to make it to the top of the mountain. I hope to some day though.
Time to start cleaning house for another open house Sunday, oh the fun....
Thanks for looking.

For not YET making it to the top of the mountain-you certainly did capture the clouds you can actually see and photograph there! AWESOME card! Good Luck with your open house!

What a fun story this is! So you've never made it up the mountain! I hve to tell you I've never seen that sentiment before. It's really a profound thougth. I love the truck, sentiment and your cuddled background. Good luck w/your open tomorrow!
