Sequim Daily Photo

Yesterday just went to you know where in a hand basket.   I am reposting a  photo from two years ago on this date.

Recently I posted the memorial at Port Williams (see below). This time of year it is indeed one of my favorite places to go and look, listen and walk. The second thumbnail shows that it is also a favorite place for others to gather. These gentle fishermen where enjoying the sun and a cup of coffee when they were approached by a young lady handing out religious tracts. I have no idea what was said, but as one left, he had a pamphlet in his hand.

Patriots Day

Shannon, my guest host while I recuperated from shoulder surgery, sent me those photos of what she found in one of her planters this week.  We suspect he might be someones pet…he/she is tame enough to be picked up.   Anyone local who knows rabbits and promises to provide an excellent home,  send me an email.  I would like to see he/she fat and sassy in a nice hutch…not having to avoid predators, or angry neighbors when he/she munches on flowers, and, heaven forbid, breeding.

Remember when I showed you green pumpkins….they are starting to turn.  Yesterday was grandparents day…and my birthday.  The grandkids all came and we scratched our names in our pumpkins.  I read some where that it will heal over and then you have your name on your jack-o-lantern.

As promised, the thumbnails show a few of the projects I worked on last week.

The first thumbnail has 20 four inch blocks pieced together on the right…the leftover blocks were pieced in to a back for the quilt (on the right).  These were from a group I belong to back in the 90’s.  The second thumbnail is a quilt for our new baby due in December.  The third quilt is a miniature.  The center block is a 10 inch panel…the outside blocks are 2 inch finished pieced blocks…took me all day.  The last thumbnail shows a lap quilt that was already done…I took the left over fabric and “made fabric” for the back.

This is one of my favorite flowers in my back yard.  It was a great trip…I’ve included some thumbnails of the kites we saw at Pacific Beach.  Tomorrow I will share some of the things we worked on.

And I guess I should mention…the mole is back too.  I have my work cut out for me tomorrow.  This one didn’t get the memo about burying beer/coke bottles in the ground leaving the neck about an inch above.  It is suppose to keep them out of your bed…and has worked well, until as of late.  This one just tosses the beer bottles out on the ground.
