What Are Quilters Blogging About Today?

 Good morning, my friends, and Happy Easter to all who celebrate. 

I'll admit that Easter is kind of a non-event around here, except that Matthew has a birthday coming up on April 2nd. He'll hit the big 4-0 this year. Every year since his birth, I've checked to see if Easter would fall on his birthday. So far, it hasn't. And since Easter baskets are no longer a part of our lives, Easter gets short shrift. Nevertheless, I remember attending Easter sunrise services with my mom, especially when my dad was deployed to Vietnam. She often ...

 Good morning, my friends. Our stay here in New Mexico has been short. We'll be on our way to Texas this morning. But I know you've been waiting on tenterhooks to find out which national park we visited yesterday, and...TaDa!

Even their big tanks have been painted with murals. I'm assuming these hold water, but I don't know for sure.

And just one more before we turned ...

 Good morning, my friends! This morning we find ourselves in the state of New Mexico. And look at you! You got there without ever leaving your chair! There's a lot of magic in this world, isn't there?

 Good morning, my friends. It's our last morning in Arizona today. We'll be moving along to New Mexico by this afternoon. First stop is Las Cruces, and weather permitting, we'll make a visit to White Sands National Park while we're there. For now, though, let's talk about yesterday's sight-seeing adventures.

As we drove into Willcox a few days ago, I saw the turn-off onto AZ-186 that would take us to Chiricahua National Monument. It was west of the KOA where we're staying. So, naturally, as we're leaving, I tell Mike to head ...

Good morning, my friends. It's shaping up to be a nice day here at the Traveling Three Cats Ranch. As I'm writing this, I have some Carrot Cake Baked Oatmeal in the oven. I'm hoping if I write slow, I can show it to you at the end of the post. On today's agenda will be a visit to Chiricahua National Monument. In a previous post, I was wringing my hands over the fact that the scenic drive was closed, and that meant there wasn't much of a reason to visit. When I checked the ...

Good morning, my friends. It was the kind of spring day that included all kinds of weather...wind, rain, hail, sunshine...but mainly, the wind blew. We had on our agenda to take a walk in downtown Benson to see the Benson murals. The information I had about them indicated there are over 40 murals in Benson depicting local history and culture. Of course, we didn't see all of them. I took pictures of the ones we saw, but you can see more at the link I've given you. We were told the Benson Visitor Center was a ...

 Good morning, my friends! We had a welcome chill day yesterday. When we drive two or more days running, it’s nice to get up in the morning and not have anywhere to go. We made a quick trip to the grocery store, but otherwise lazed around.

I spent a good amount of time on the Kitten block, filling in most of the flower.

Good morning, my friends. It was a fairly long day of driving yesterday. We stopped at one waypoint. (I'll tell you about that in a minute.) Otherwise, it was just mile after mile after mile of freeway driving. The kitties were happy to be getting their first morning sunbath of the trip. We were facing the wrong way back in Escondido. We're probably facing the wrong way here in Benson too, but I'm sure there will be more opportunities down the road.

This week's photo challenge had both My Guy and I debating if a trip to Tulsa was necessary as we weren't sure there were many of these in town. 

We did make the trip to Tulsa, but I found my image in town on one of my rambles.  

Kate: Where the Buffalo Roam?

Oklahoma is one of the places where the buffalo used to roam. So it's not surprising that our community decided to put bison statues all over town.  This one is called "Tree of Life", it's in front of the Presbyterian Church downtown. As ...

Good morning, my friends, and Hellooooooooo, Arizona.

We really hated to disturb her, but progress waits for no cat.

We headed south on I-15 until we reached I-8. This brought back a lot of memories of our time in Phoenix. Our families lived in southern California, and I can't even begin to count the number of times we traveled ...

Good afternoon, my friends. It's our last day here in Escondido. Tomorrow morning, we will head east again, stopping in Arizona for a couple of days, and then continuing on our journey to the middle of Texas, where we will hope to see the solar eclipse. 

My morning started with some slow stitching. I filled what was in my hoop, and now I've moved my hoop up to begin stitching the kitten's face and the flower.
