The Traveling Tote #6

Welcome to the 6th edition of the The Traveling Tote!

January was a lazy month for me.  I caught up on cleaning and organizing the house, painting Valentine hearts, St Patty's shamrocks and Easter bunnies, and some antiquing and shopping:

                                        Syracuse Antique Exchange                                                     The House of S. Jaye Vendor Show      



Our neighbor, Paris, came over to "play" one night and loved my tote:

Snowy winters are very common in central NY, but this year we never got any measurable snow until mid January...


...and it can be quite gloomy, and February brought even more snow...


...I considered hopping on a train...


...but this train was heading north....


...and my totes and I were dreaming of sunshine and warmth.... 


...so I hopped on the internet...


...and made reservations to go south!



So, while you are reading this, I am on my way to the Carolinas for some SUN and to visit some old neighbors and relatives!


I will tell you all about it in our June TT post!
