Donating Yarn and More

 Thank you Gail B for this thoughtful donation and your on going and long time support of Bridge and Beyond.  We certainly value all you do.  Gail has donated some yarn that will get put to good use and scarves she's crocheted.  Gail's work is always wonderful, and I love how she uses nice dark colors suitable for men or women.
I love the rust and blues together here, they might just stay paired like that to make a ghan?  They might be needed elsewhere, time will tell, but solid rust and variegated rust with the two shades of blue make me see stripes or ripples or...........um.  We shall see what they choose to become.  We all know sometimes the yarn speaks to us, lol.

Many thanks Gail, as always please keep up the good work.

Reaching Beyond here on Bridge and Beyond

 Thank you Cheri and cousin Jackie.  I know (online) Cheri from Find A Grave (where we post to document gravesstones).  Cheri and I also connected on Facebook where I read a post regarding homeless folks her cousin was trying to help.  Followed the links along and connected with her cousin Jackie.  
Jackie hikes in the woods and has run into several homeless guys that's she's trying to aid with warm items, food etc.  I sent her a box of hats, scarves, socks, and personal care items to extend our borders ...beyond.  After all, the name of our mission is Bridge and Beyond........

I've blurred the box so as not to post Jackie's address and I've heard back that she has indeed received our donation.  So thank you Cheri and Jackie for caring, the flowers for you.  I hope the box of donations from Bridge and Beyond and the many good folks here that make donations possible is of help in your quest there in Indiana.

Where are You and Your Yarn From?

I'm trying to identify where everyone is from, partially for fun. Take a look at the map. Also, believe it will aid me in cases where we have several people with the same name. Please look at the lists of bloggers and non bloggers and see if I have the state you hail from. If not, please leave a comment and let me know.

Additionally, we've had help from Scotland, England, Germany Puerto Rico, Canada, and France! They don't appear on the map, but their help is still greatly appreciated.

Where The People Who Donate Come From, is your state represented?
