Life …
I made a fast flying trip with Paul and Joel to NY. Paul had a CAM Rapid Response meeting in PA. Joel planned to visit Dustin & Gina in NY after dropping Paul off in PA. There were 2 extra seats in the plane so I got to hop aboard to go along.
Dustin took Joel to some airplane museum close by and Gina took me to a few little fabric shops around Penn Yan.
In his back yard, Dustin chopped and broke scrap slats for a bonfire.
This is the back side of the house where Dustin & Gina live.
They invited her family in for supper -- meat, potatoes, carrots and onions wrapped in tin foil and then smoked on the grill.
Joel roasted his marshmallows to perfection.
Gina fixed us a wonderful breakfast including homemade grape juice. Mmmmm good!
I enjoyed my short stay with Dustin & Gina so very much. It just didn’t last long enough.
On the way back to the airport Joel bought us a treat at Seneca Farms. I chose “peach” ice cream, the flavor of the week, . And that was mmmmmm good too!
And then it was time to fly back home.
… as a Quilter
Dana came over one day and became interested in making a small quilt. She’s a good fast learner …
… and got a good start on her improvisational quilt. She’s making it similar to the quilt that Gina made here.
We stopped for fuel at a small airport in Knoxville, TN. Seeing the Sunsphere reminded me of the AQS Quilt Show we had attended there earlier.
