We live just off the Chief Joesph Highway. Walk, ski or snowshoe everyday. I am a founding member of the 1st Textile Art group in Wyoming, Textile Artists of the Greater Yellowstone. One last thing, I am terrible at updating my blog. I always promise to do better but so far I fail at that. Must be because I am busy creating art??

This is Dorothea Lange, she was a photographer for the federal government, she documented the dust bowl and the internment of the Japanese. If you ever have the honor to visit the Heart Mountain Japanese Internment camp Museum. ( Between Cody and Powell Wyoming) As you walk in the door you will see a black and white photo that is a shot of a building in California (I believe) There is a huge banner on that building that says, "We are Americans" I was thrilled that this art quilt was juried into the HERstory exibhit and has traveled many places over the last 4 years. All the quilts in this exhibit have been published in a book and is available from Amazon. Susanne Miller Jones is the curator and the book title is HERstory A Celebration of Strong Women.

We hike this tail alot in the winter.(and summer) Easy access and after a few weeks the trail gets packed either from our snowshoes or our cross county skis. We have seen many elk up on this trail. </span><p></p>Jeannehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12994538597084773456noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6695795244457969469.post-50776247085485769572022-02-23T15:54:00.001-08:002022-02-23T15:54:00.199-08:00My book exchange<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjn3U7cv6gpqvxJChS6S3nFKGwQvV1a4j5NJ51s1ZcVUx7EVf3oPc1LR71NpBg8BSJehL8djiRcLaSMrTlOK6s91fLwq3hjgUIqYTCGOs4GrY6g6iUzd6n6UV9QvwDqhTYLIU7h1QMJBKm_pEqjcArjI-mKGhbR4gYwNlTXFkt0wm0wtFQ7yVLWVJizWQ=s4032" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="4032" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjn3U7cv6gpqvxJChS6S3nFKGwQvV1a4j5NJ51s1ZcVUx7EVf3oPc1LR71NpBg8BSJehL8djiRcLaSMrTlOK6s91fLwq3hjgUIqYTCGOs4GrY6g6iUzd6n6UV9QvwDqhTYLIU7h1QMJBKm_pEqjcArjI-mKGhbR4gYwNlTXFkt0wm0wtFQ7yVLWVJizWQ=w640-h480" width="640" /></a></div><br /> <span style="font-size: large;">My husband made this book exchange for me. It is really fun.
