1) Football Season
2) Halloween
3) Taking a last ride with the top down and looking at the fall colors
4) Thanksgiving
5) A massive cross stitch project (yes, I cross stitch lol) for the winter months
So how about it Charms & fans, what are you looking forward to?
Football, I'm with you on that one. Both college and professional. Halloween, ehhh, I can go with or without it!!! Cross stitch project??? Please help me understand. I'm not that bright (apparently)!!!

I'll try to explain this as simply as I can Loke, I know it sounds odd for a guy to be doing this. What cross stitch is is getting a piece of colored fabric with little holes on the entire canvas. Different colored thread (floss) is used to make multiple little x's on the fabric creating a design you choose from a pattern. My deceased sister got me going on this years ago. We would get together when we could and stitch projects for hours during the late fall, winter, and early spring. It's been more than a few years since I've done a project so I thought this year was a good year to start one. Over the years I have stitched a few team logos, one or two cars, and many lighthouses. I actually won an award in 1998 for a lighthouse I did. Again, I know it sounds very odd for a guy to be doing this but it really relaxes me. Thanks for contributing Loke.
