Well the weekend began Friday morning with a quick trip through the…you know… then off to the beach. The weather was all over the place this weekend, providing us with many views, all beautiful, of Siletz Bay… and a variation on the usual sights…. We got out “Diploma” and “Diana”…our now almost 44 year old […]

“High” Summer
The fourth of July is really the beginning of the mid summer celebration of flowers and good warm weather and just being outside all the time. Our habit is to be at the beach on the fourth and the last few years Z & A and friends Amy and Ian have joined us…for reading, good […]
FOR SALE
Okay…our little enclave at the beach is just so…well…adorable. Especially our street, Ebb Street… which includes our house, Mary Lou and Alan’s, Terry and LuAnn’s, Wee Packum Inn, Jim & Carol’s and nearby David and Susan, and Sharon… we’re just around the corner from Josephine Young Park which is right on the Bay… In the […]
This One Goes Out to Dave…
Oh thank goodness Dave wanted to see more of Ian’s truck…(since I took a TON of photos…). It’s a 1941 Dodge pickup which had been customized a bit when he got it…though Ian has done a lot to it himself. After he got the truck, Ian realized he actually had a 1942 license plate hanging […]

How to get to Cutler City
Nan turned me on to the Art House Co-op in Brooklyn last year and I’ve bought and sent in a couple of sketch books for their Sketchbook Project. But every week they have a free project…(one week it was to photograph your lunch at noon on a certain date and send them the photo so […]
And so the New Year BEGINS!
We’re back. What a terrific holiday we had, and what a lovely beginning to 2012 from the beach. I finished a few 2011 projects like the ugly fabric challenge quilt # 2 and the utopia quilt we hung up the Christmas present lantern from “Santa” took in the bright moonlight (sorry…cellphone photo) reflected in the […]
Hi!
A greeting from blog-vacation-land…
Kitchen Transformation!
This is ABSOLUTELY the last fix-up project for the year…and the LAST time we ever paint a kitchen…we sincerely hope…. Phil was out at the beach and had two extra days…we had left-over subway tile…the rest is history. We’ve had the beach house for 20 years, the wall paper was old and stained then…the cupboards […]
