DoryJM Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 This is a photo my step-daughter took last weekend while they were here for our Christmas celebration. Its a bit of a tease, since you can only see the outside of the yurt...but notice the smoke escaping the chimney. Isn't it cute??? This weekend, we will get everything put away and then I'll be a picture-posting fool! Stay tuned..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KerryM Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 Can hardly wait...althought the alternative would be to drive down there to see for myself........I guess I will have to wait! but a road trip sounds like fun..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
witha'K'quilting Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 I am thinking I will drive over and look this spring. But, in the meantime...pictures couldn't hurt! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IQuiltToo Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 Dory, it looks great! Is it staying nice and warm in there? I know you can have some pretty good snows. If we make a Graeagle trip this summer I'd love to come by and see it. We have dear old friends that moved to Minden on retiring. Cindy is very active in the horse rescue and their Posse. She is also a quilter! Marilyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mary Beth Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 What a great looking view you have...I'm sure all around. I probably wouldn't get anything done knowing I am surrounded by that scenery and knowing there was a horse I could ride out there somewhere.

PattyJo Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 Yes Dory - You are a teaser!!:D!! More pics, More pics, More pics. We may all have to drive to your house to see inside your Yurt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IBQLTN2 Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 I think it is about time we get those pictures seems you have been teasing us for months now. How long since you started this endeavor anyway. I think you could have built it from scratch in that amount of time. Just remember all good things are worth waiting, but you know we are all an impatient bunch, so pretty please with Sugar on top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoryJM Posted January 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 Okay, so here's the plan. Tonight was our "Friday Night Margarita" night (Thursdays are our Fridays) so no work tonight. Tomorrow, we hope to get the yurt in order enough for pics; if not, by Saturday for sure. I promise...inside pics this week. And for all of you that think you're threatening me with coming over, I say: "Come on over!":P I'm hoping to have Shannon out this summer to do some teaching of her Doodlebug style and you're certainly all welcome then!! As far as being tempted to ride more than quilt, right now its cold so riding isn't quite as tempting;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheri Butler Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 Dory, It's BEAUTIFUL! I can't wait for those inside pics! I have been wondering where you were on this for quite a while. You are so lucky to live in a warm climate that you can put up that yurt. If I tried to do that here in Nebraska, the 40+ mph winds would have blown it to the east coast within 48 hours!

sewlinzi Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 How exciting - now the fun really starts of where to put everything! You can stop for hot choc made on the stove too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gator Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 Dory, the picture is beautiful. Could you put in another YURT for visitors? I could see myself sitting outside and enjoying the peaceful setting for hours. Yea, I'm jealous.:mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linda G. Craig Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 Dory, what a gorgeous place you have! I bet once you have everything set up in your yurt you won't want to leave it. Looking forward to more pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happyquilter Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 Wow. Breath takingly beautiful! I too did not know what a yurt was until this forum. Dory, thanks for the peek but please put up those pictures when you can. Especially for those of us living in a city. The surrounding area just looks incredible. I am fortunate and have a nice indoor sewing room but would love to have a fraction of that incredible view. That's why us New Yorkers are envious of that CA. sunshine. Who wouldn't be? Have fun moving in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lisalnewman Posted January 9, 2010 Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 Dory So glad to see that your yurt is near completion. You will love having your own dedicated space in such a unique place. How many quilters have their very own yurt, you are truely one of a kind. Can't wait to see more pics. Take care, Lisa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
