Combine a stay at Whispering Pines Bed & Breakfast in Ohio with a visit to the Canton Museum of Art

December 7, 2011 – 3:06 pm

Combine an overnight stay at our romantic bed and breakfast overlooking beautiful Atwood Lake with a visit to the Canton Art Museum and we will include the cost of two ticket’s. Just mention this blog.

Focus: Fiber 2011, a juried triennial exhibition of contemporary fiber art, will be on display at the Canton Museum of Art from December 2 through March 4, 2012. Hosted in coordination with the Textile Art Alliance of the Cleveland Museum of Art, Focus: Fiber 2011 features the best of contemporary textile/fiber work and pushes the boundaries of the medium — merging ancient and new techniques in exciting and surprising ways.

Focus: Fiber 2011 features 50 works by 39 artists, ranging from miniature to very large wall pieces, as well as 3 dimensional works using non-traditional materials such as tea bags and dryer lint. Two hundred and seventy-eight pieces were submitted from an eight state region — Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia. The submissions varied from installation and performance works, to innovative re-visioning of traditional textiles. Entries were juried by internationally recognized fiber artist Dorothy Caldwell, of Hastings, Ontario. Says Caldwell, “Focus: Fiber 2011-12 provides a broad cross-section of work in an important field of contemporary art. I was struck by the audacious use of eccentric fabrics and casual construction – the unpredictable carrier of a message.”

Museum Hours:

Monday – closed; Tuesday, Wednesday – 10 am – 8 pm; Thursday – Friday – 10 am – 5 pm; Saturday – 10 am – 3 pm; Sunday – 1 pm to 5 pm

I’ll look forward to seeing you soon,

Tennessee Vacation

November 17, 2011 – 3:47 pm

Last week we had the pleasure of taking a four night getway to Cosby, Tennessee, just outside Gatlinburg. We stayed at Creekwalk Inn located in the most serene quiet place in that area. Innkeepers, Janice & Tifton were delighful hosts greeting us with warmth and smiles. We instantly had a great connection with them and had dinner together two nights. The first two nights we stayed at the Inn which is in a large log home. The decor is fantastic, just what you would expect for a log home. Lots of Native American items, twig furniture; hand painted and natural and log beds and many whimsical things to look at all over the Inn.
Breakfast was excellent as Janice is a very creative cook.

The last two night we stayed in one of their 30 cabins located in the Smoky Mountains. The cabin we stayed in was the last one up a very, very windy road going up the mountain. The first time up was quite intimidating, but after that Bill actually enjoyed the drive. The cabin had a wood burning fireplace, jacuzzi tub, outside hot tub on the private balcony, an open kitchen, bedroom and 2 inside rocking chairs. We brought food and enjoyed peaceful walks, good conversation, outdoor grilling and spectacular scenery. The beauty of the Smoky Mountains is unsurpassed.

If you are looking for a mountain retreat, call Janice at 1-800-962-2246 and tell them Linda & Bill sent you. You are sure to have a wonderful time. Be sure to visit their website for photos.

And, I’ll look forward to seeing you at Whispering Pines soon,
Linda
