What Are Quilters Blogging About Today?

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.

We also see lots of birds of prey ...

Good morning, my friends. It's our last morning on the road. We've crossed the border into the United States, and we're here to stay for a while. Probably a long while. We'll be doing more traveling eventually, but we have no plans to travel internationally at this point.

After the heat of the day before, we got on our way early. As it turns out, it never got very hot yesterday, but we took no chances. We needed fuel, and the cheapest fuel was down the road in the Ashcroft First Nation territory. As we drove ...

Good morning, my friends. It's our last morning in Canada. We'll cross the border into Washington state toward the end of today's drive. We'll spend one more night in Mt. Vernon, Washington, and then we'll make the last leg of the journey toward home tomorrow. We're all pretty well ready to be off the road.

So, let's back up to our drive from Quesnel to Ashcroft yesterday. Before I go on, I want to address a couple of things I said in yesterday's post. For one thing, the air-conditioning in the truck ...
