After taking a four mile walk this morning we packed up a picnic lunch and headed off for Douglas. Our destination was the home of friends Loren and Betty. Loren is the father of our friend Larry. Loren and Betty have a place near Douglas and have a spot to park their motorhome near Big Timber spending only summers in Big Timber. We had a great visit talking about this area and about friends and family in Big Timber—were your ears burning Larry??
We picked up a few groceries at Safeway in Douglas and headed back down the road. That’s the extent of our day. Found out it was a good day to be in Arizona when I clicked on Facebook this morning and saw Barb’s photos of McLeod Street in Big Timber--20+ new inches of heavy wet snow.
I also received an email from Caryl with a photo of her award winning quilt. The quilt which I machine quilted for her won honorable mention at the Arizona State Quilt Guild’s annual quilt show. The judges found almost nothing to criticize about the quilt and we are both thrilled!

Congratulations on the quilt!!
ReplyDeleteThey didn't ask me but I think it's a blue ribbon. If THIS won Honorable Mention, wonder what the blue ribbon was like!!
