I don’t know what you call it, but it was an amazing sight in the sky this afternoon. I’d have missed it except for the two people standing there staring up in amazement…

The Collaboration Quilts…
I think I mentioned that Kay and I are having a small show of quilts in October. She has a quilt I like, and I have a quilt she likes. Today we traded and I will “respond” to her quilt, and she to mine. Then together we will collaborate on a big quilt…so, to recap, […]
Solstice
Almost 10:00 and so beautiful. Light light and more light.
Endings/Beginnings
Today was the day…the last book out, the last chair and the last lamp, all the files sorted and gone. This was a day I thought would be sad, but it wasn’t. Off we go into the next decade, if our luck holds. Roger leaves his office and I begin to move out of the […]

The Weather…ugh (and the Gilbert House Garden Tour)
I hate to talk about the weather but it REFUSES to become late spring/early summer here in Oregon in every way except for the delicious light, with us until 9:30 p.m. or so. Last week was the Gilbert House Garden tour with about 400 people through the gardens in 2 days but, AMAZINGLY, the sun […]
