It was absolutely beautiful on the beach - The waves were really crashing (pretty rough) and there was a breeze and brilliant sunshine - Believe it or not I wish it had been a tad hotter - I was a little chilly - Anyway - it was beautiful sitting on the beach listening to the waves. I did manage to get myself a sunburn. Really - I'm good about putting on the lotion in a #45 since i burn so easily but I only applied it once the one day - and forgot to "reapply" - so only half my one leg is burnt and half my arm from the way i was sitting I guess - looks pretty funny. That's what happens when I start reading - I get so engrossed in a book I forgot sunscreen! Well anyway that's my story and I'm sticking to it!Came home today and found a package on my table. Inside was this beautiful quilt wall hanging from my friend Lori Rippey - Check out her picture trail for many more gorgeous items she has for sale. She does wonderful quality work -
The pic I took isn't that good - it's got some gorgeous prim fabrics in this wall hanging and her stitches are perfect! Thank you so much Lori - I will treasure it always!
Hoping to get started on some more of my friend's UFO's tomorrow but then again maybe I will finish one of the projects I started before I took on the project of finishing her items. We shall see.
Hope everyone is enjoying this absolutely beautiful weather we are having - If only it could stay like this for months on end!

LOL, too funny with the seat belt on Gourdon! You crack me up..
Glad you had a good time at the beach, but sorry you got burned. That is never fun.
I agree with you, I wish the weather would last for a while. But we all know what comes after this :(.
I like your orange friend, do you have conversations with him? LOL I can imagine the looks you might get driving around with him, that would be funny.

Hope Gourdon didn't get burned!!!! He's looking a tad bit red...or is that orange? Sounds like you had a great time!
Ha! Ha! Haaaaaa! I'm bustin' a rib laughin' so hard at gourdon, with his shades, strapped in the car!!!! What a riot! Thanks for the giggles this morning! It's going to be a GREAT day! Lucky you receiving such a beautiful piece from Lori! She's always making something awesome!
Hi Joanne - LOVE your friend! Sounds like you had a great time at the beach - sorry about the burn. Hope to see you on Grant Street before long. Its always fun to be with you.
I'm wishing I had a beach to go to. Even though I couldn't always cope with the weather, I'm finding that this year, especially, I'm missing Maine. Maybe it's because I've been so overheated this year, dealing with these damn heat sweats, and I never, ever got hot in Maine. It just never warmed up that much on the island.
I love this Gourdon you have strapped into the seat belt. Do you get any really strange looks because of it??
I'm really lovin' this weather. Our normal high is around 84 this time of year but yet, for the past two weeks, we've been in the low to mid 70's. LOVE it!! But some of the trees are changing already so I think we're going to have an early winter. Not my favorite season but at least I won't be so hot.
