Snowman Center Step

Howdy Bloggers:

Here is something about me. I am a snowman freak! Yep - I am called the Snowman Troll. Reason for that name?  Snowmen were my choice of collections [I keep them up year around - although I have since stop collecting due to having too many Snowmen items already]  and I live under the bridge - the Mackinac Bridge.

Here in Michigan we have two sections of land that are connected by the Mackinac Bridge - {Pictures of the Bridge - Click HERE} one is called the Upper Peninsula and the other the Lower Peninsula[has a Mitten shape].  Those who live in the Upper Peninsula are called Yoopers - and those that live below the bridge are called Trolls by the Yoopers.

My husband, Rick Scott was living in the Upper Peninsula when we first met. When he moved to the UP. [yes, another name for Upper Peninsula - Rick was quoted as saying "Burn the Bridge." - Basically, he was meaning that this was his permanent residence and he was not moving back to the lower part of Michigan ever again.  Here is a lesson learn:  "Never say never... because one does not know what life has in store." OK - enough rambling.  Thank you for stopping by  - I am liking my snowman card here. 

Enjoy your day. ~ Gail ~
