By Paper Crafter from Toms River, NJ on 11/29/2011

Chest Size: Feels true to size

Sleeve Length: Feels true to length

Pros: Warm, Comfortable, Stylish, Great Color, Flattering

Cons: Need more tye-dyed ones

Best Uses: Going Out, Casual Wear

Describe Yourself: Stylish, Comfort-oriented

Was this a gift?: No

I have these in at least 8 colors. They are my go-to top for the fall/winter with leggings or jeans. I add a big pendant style necklace and it compliments the top.
I would like more tye-dyed choices.

Blizzard of December 26, 2010

Back of house - Shed door is almost fully covered.

Another view of the back of house.

Can't get out the Sliding Door!

Frank's car buried in a drift.

Across the street neighbor's can't get out their front door or garage!

The back of our house is the worst of the drifts.

Most of our Christmas figures are buried in the snow.

Candee - Our little girl!

The front driveway has been shoveled since taking these pictures. Two guys driving by dug us out and cleaned Frank's car off too. We asked them if they could stop back on Wednesday to try and make some kind of path in the yard for Candee. I don't think we'll be able to open the sliding door until they can shovel from the outside.

You would think that living by the shore you wouldn't get any snow, WRONG! We had our share of snowstorms living in northern NJ, but this one in southern NJ is just as bad as any up north! In fact, I've heard some parts up north got less snow than us from this storm.

I think I'm going to go stir crazy. Well, it gives me plenty of crafting time. Now only if I can get motivated!

STAY WARM!

Well, these are the 2 photos that I went with for our bathroom wall. They look so sharp in the frames that I painted the same color as the wall. They look like they're floating on the wall, really cool!

I'd like your opinion on the following photos. We just had our bathroom completely remodeled, and I wanted to put some ocean scenes on the wall, instead of a store-bought decor. The colors in my bathroom are all earth tones and thought that sepia toned photos would look the best. The original color photos look pretty good, but I can't decide whether to stick with the color or the sepia tones. I'm using both pictures, and I've posted both pictures in color and sepia for your opinion. Please leave a comment to let me know of your opinion.

Lake Elsinore - 1997

Overlooking Lake Elsinore, California, we stopped at a scenic overlook on our way to Temecula!

Temecula - December 1997

2009-10-18T13:26:00.002-04:00

Below are photos of one of the vineyards and wineries of Temecula, California. The pictures were taken in December 1997 on a trip to California to welcome the birth of our greatniece, Samantha. On the trip was our Dad, my sister Pattie, and niece Stephanie. The trip to the vineyards was the most fun I had in a long time!

Laguna Beach - 1997

A day at Laguna Beach as part of our California trip. There's something about the ocean air that is invigorating and calming at the same time.

North Dakota - 1977

2009-10-11T13:30:00.000-04:00

Below are some photos from a trip across country in July of 1977. Destination was Colorado Springs to visit friends. My niece, Mia, who was 12 at the time, came with me for the 2 week trip that started in New Jersey, taking a northwestern route. We traveled in my pickup truck with a slide-in camper. I was 28 at the time, and was the only driver! It was an experience, but one I wouldn't recommend without another driver.

Mystic Seaport - 1976

2009-10-11T13:25:00.001-04:00

This shot was taken at Mystic Seaport in Connecticut. We stopped here on our way to Cape Cod in August of '76. On this trip was my Mom, sister Pattie, niece Mia, and nephews Chris and JoJo.

This photo was another in my series of Ringwood Manor photos. It was in a slide format, and unfortunately, scanning a slide with what I have doesn't produce the best results possible.

Bushkill Falls - 1976

2009-10-11T13:17:00.001-04:00

Below are some photos of a trip to Pennsylvania's Bushkill Falls! I took my nephews, Chris and JoJo, and niece Mia for a day trip.
