What Are Quilters Blogging About Today?

Good morning, my friends. If you read yesterday's post, then you already know our yesterday was spent sight-seeing in the nearby towns of Zillah and Toppenish. We left the RV early to head down the road a mile to have a breakfast of our beloved Egg McMuffins, and then we made our trek to both towns. We were back at the camper before noon. We were staying in one of the less desirable private RV parks. I can't complain too much. The place was nothing fancy. The worst part is that the surrounding area is populated by feedlots ...

Good morning, my friends. It was a perfect day for hiking the Ancient Lakes Trail yesterday. We had both clouds and sun, and it kept us cool along a rather dry and unshaded path. But let's just back up to the start of the day. When I looked out our back window, this is what I saw:

While we've been traveling, I learned that the designer of this pattern, Meg Hawkey, had passed away. I read that on Facebook, and I haven't ...

Good morning, my friends. We had a very enjoyable day yesterday. On the day’s agenda were these items: visit Grand Coulee Dam, get some groceries, visit the Gehrke Windmill Garden. Check, check, and check. We left Sadie basking in the morning sunshine. And speaking of sunshine, we had a nice day of weather. A little breezy and on the chilly side, but no rain, and no dust.

Good morning, my friends. This will be a shorty. There are two reasons for that. First, we gave ourselves a chill day yesterday, which meant we did next to nothing. It was warm, but very windy outside, and so it wasn't particularly pleasant being out there. We might have taken the walk down by the river, but the wind discouraged us. And, if I'm being honest, the warning about the presence of venomous snakes killed my curiosity about anything else we might find there.

Instead, I spent a good part of the day slow-stitching. When I'd done ...

Good morning, my friends. Yesterday’s drive was pretty easy. Just about 90 miles, and almost no traffic. We’re in the hinterlands, and so there’s not a lot to see. We passed by a few barns.

Good morning, my friends. Oh my...what a pretty place we find ourselves in today. We drove into Winthrop, Washington, yesterday afternoon.

Good morning, my friends. We'll be heading down the dusty trail again in a little while. Our next stop will be Winthrop, Washington, just up the road, and on the other side of the national park. But let's not get ahead of ourselves. Let's talk about yesterday's activities. 

We're nearly out of ice cream, but since we still have enough vanilla, I was motivated to bake a Skillet Cherry Cobbler for Two. These are cherries from our own trees, and my adaptation of my mother's recipe to make it a skillet cobbler for two ...

Good morning, my friends. What a beautiful day of weather we had yesterday! It was the first really warm day of our trip. I packed both long and short-sleeved shirts, and plenty of sweatshirts. Yesterday was the first time I wore a short-sleeved shirt. We're expecting similar weather today.

So we settled on the Skagit-Sauk Reach Trail. It was listed as being five miles, but with almost no elevation gain. We ended up turning around when we reached a point where it was more overgrown than we liked. Some reviewers said there was poison ivy. We didn't see ...

Good afternoon, my friends. Fortunately, we didn't have far to go to reach our latest stop because it was a horrible day of weather. We find ourselves in La Conner, Washington, this afternoon. We couldn't check in here until 1:00. We had just a little more than an hour's drive from Flowing Lake SP, and checkout time there was noon, so it all worked out. I had plenty of time to play my word games, and to make a little more progress on the flock. I love those sheep faces.
