Birthday weekend…

Two old friends have a show up this month…sculptor Robert Hess showing new work in bronze, and painter Sue-Del McCulloch with her big exploded landscapes taking the space by storm: Waterstone Gallery, 424 NW 12th, Portland…up until October 30th so there’s still time to take a look…. and Saturday we went out to Sue-Del’s for […]
Road Trip…Port Townsend

Ivy having it’s way with our house: Ginny & Gretchen […]

Here’s a bit of western Oregon and Crater Lake: Here’s the Willamette Valley and the Coast Range/beach/ocean: It will look better when it’s quilted (I […]
Quilting Time…
Well the Seattle quilters stopped by briefly on their way to Sisters for the big week of classes and the quilt show…just to say hi since I’m not going with them this year but quilting is the week’s activity for me too. After a quick visit to the carwash (I LOVE the carwash) I took […]
Nice Day/Car Wash
When everybody else heads out for parks and wineries and the beach, I head to the car wash–an ALWAYS entertaining few minutes: The shot on the right looks like a Motherwell painting!!
