What Are Quilters Blogging About Today?

Good morning, my friends. There's a lot of ground to cover this morning, so let's just get to it, shall we? First, I'll tell you about what happened here at home, and then I'll tell you about our Thursday sight-seeing excursion with Erik and Mae. Sound good? I hope so because that's how this is gonna go. I have a lot of pictures. Feel free to top off your coffee before we start.

The garden needed hoeing after being neglected for nearly a week, and the flowers wowed me. Since I hadn't seen them ...

Good morning, my friends! I’m back a day early. If you were hoping to have another day of peace and quiet without my blabbing on and on and on about nothing at all, then I’m sorry. But you know how it is…I get word overload, and then things just don’t go well at all. And don’t even get me started on all the pictures I have to show you. After giving it some thought, I decided to tell you about the trip in three installments. There’ll be this post. Then, I’ll write a ...

Good morning, my friends. Don't let that title scare you. We're back to what passes for normal around here if, by normal, you're talking about controlled chaos. But that's beside the point. I just want to say straight out that there's nothing to worry about. The worst is all in the past. I have a lot to tell you this morning, and a lot of pictures to show you. If you're planning to read to the end, now would be a good time to refill your coffee cup. And if you're not planning ...

Good morning, my friends. We find ourselves in Klamath Falls, Oregon, this morning. And YAY! We're not home yet, but at least we're in our home state. And forget everything I said yesterday. We had to spend a couple of hours yesterday morning rerouting ourselves when we heard there was a winter weather advisory for the Cascades and the Siskiyous. It will be hazardous trying to get across the mountain passes with that kind of weather, and so we've rerouted ourselves to head north to the Columbia Gorge and then head west toward home from there.

Good morning, my friends. It was a dark and rainy day yesterday. It rained the whole day. Fortunately, it was just a kind of normal rain, and so it didn't make driving hazardous. It made it difficult to take pictures though. I wish I had better pictures to show you today, but we'll muddle through, okay? Before we took off in the morning, I made some more progress on my Christmas Miracle piece.

Good afternoon, my friends. Today we find ourselves in Patterson, California. Here's what I know about Patterson: It is known as the "Apricot Capital of the World," and holds an annual Apricot Fiesta to celebrate with many drinks, food, desserts and games. If you've been paying attention, then you'll remember I said we'd be in Tracy in my last post. I was wrong. (I know...weird, right?) We're actually some miles down the road. 

We've always traveled around 300 miles on driving days...usually more than that. For this trip, and hereafter, I've ...

Good afternoon, my friends. We're one day closer to our month-long destination in Escondido, California. This afternoon, we find ourselves in Red Bluff...about an hour south of Redding, if that helps. We had a nice day's drive today with relatively good weather. Mike is happy because he washed both the truck and the RV before we left home, and both are still clean.

As we left Wolf Creek this morning, I got my own photo of the Wolf Creek Inn mentioned in yesterday's post. It's the oldest continuously-operating hotel in Oregon, having begun operation in ...

Good evening, my friends. Hey! I'm back! And I'm over 200 miles from where I was the last time we chatted. We left our home under dark and cloudy skies and drove through the fog until we reached the bottom of our hill. There, we found blue skies and sunshine. Mt. Hood did everything in its power to avoid having its picture taken, but I captured it anyway.
