well I like angela's name and I am now calling my juki - june. Well she was the only one to respond.
I saw this quotes and it comes from one of my favorite books, Cold Mountain. Not that I thought the story was beyond outstanding, but because of how well it was written. Just in this quote you can read how he meandered through and you really grasp Rudy and her personality. You see a hillbilly woman with a distrust of the big bad world. Please read this book if you are so inclined. I never saw the movie and never intend to, when I really like a book, I rarely watch the movie. Hollywood cannot get it right.
“there was not one thing in a place like france or new york or charleston that ruby wanted. and little she even needed that she couldn’t make or grow or find on cold mountain. she held a deep distrust of travel. her view was that a world properly put together would yield inhabitants so suited to their lives in their assigned place that they would never need nor wish to travel. folks would, out of utter contentment, choose to stay home, since the failure to do so was patently the root of many ills, current and historic.”
I need to sew a bit, but hopefully later I will put up some pics of Jim's birthday party.
