Happy Columbus Day..........All C-Day invokes in me is the terrible storms we have here in coastal Oregon. But, today is very calm, good enough for a nice stroll outside.

Glad Oregon is safe for you! our new house in Florida is high and dry also...so happy. Leaving this next week to become a snowbird, I can hardly wait. New adventure for hubby and me and we are looking forward to it. Nice cleaning out this house...the garbage, donate or take with us and buying and furnishing a new one. Some new and some old to remind us where it comes from

GramE - you change your avatar and I can't keep up!! Didn't think you as a pink lady or is it for breast cancer awareness.
Rainy dreary day today. Dog hates this weather too and doesn't like to poop in wet areas. And today there are no dry ones! Taking today off from everything. DH has Nascar race on and I can't handle the noise so went to library and enjoyed the quiet there!
Happy Columbus day!

Been confined a lot lately, need something to keep me busy when I can't get to the sewing machine. The 2 men in the next to the last were my son & grandson. My oldest grandson went from civilian to Coast Guard boot camp. Anxiety level around here creeping up. Then we heard from him, a statement he read over the phone saying they were feeding him & would be fine & now it will be 5 weeks before we hear again. The beautiful young lady is my granddaughter who turned 17 on Friday. This is a charm pack quilt made with the 10 minute block (hahahaha, ten minutes to read & understand and reread over a couple of times.) I made & gave to a young lady just turned 16 (not related) who is in a difficult situation at home. Talked to her this week, but might be a long while before I do again. Didn't start out to be so pink but charm packs only go so far! but ended up really pink. I kinda use them as reminders.

One of my dogs won't even go out in the rain. It gets in her eyes and she makes the funniest faces squinting. I crack up laughing, which now that I think, maybe she doesn't like me laughing at her!

Since I'm chatting with you, here's your block I'm working on appliquéing. Hope it isn't too much tree. Looks just like the one in my backyard, swing & all.

Columbus Day is the least favorite of "postal holidays" for Mail carriers. Mail is still moving so when they get back to work on Tues, there is Monday's mail & Tuesday's mail.

Muse's ballet block is so beautiful... And I love GramE's gnarly tree with tire swing. It's great! Super creative ladies.

eta: Just noticed the squirrel in the tree!
