PA, and currently live in central Virginia, with my husband and six children. I grew up in LMC and then a Keystone church until I was 19. I am currently part of a BMA church. I...

Re: Introductions

I am new here and was going to start a new topic to introduce myself, but the NEW TOPIC button does not show for me. I am wondering if there is a rule that I have to have a minimum of say 10 posts before it will let me start a new topic? https://www.bobistheoilguy.com/forums/images/graemlins/defaul...

Re: Today ...

We used to have a number of those Foxfire books. Wish now we had kept them, they would have been good reference books here in TN. I am getting mine from the local library. That is how we got introduced to them in the first place and then found them for sale at thrift stores and library book sales.
