Everything needed watering yesterday morning, together with hence I spent some fourth dimension exterior earlier leaving to drive downtown. The firstly flowers are appearing on the butterfly bush, together with they are simply showtime to open.
Two to a greater extent than flowers receive got appeared on the zucchini. Of the 3 plants, alone this 1 has bloomed hence far. I'm hoping the other 2 volition larn alongside the computer programme soon.
And facial expression who in conclusion opened! It's the star lily. This hapless thing has been inward a pot, neglected for at to the lowest degree 3 years. Anything that tin accept that sort of neglect together with come upwards dorsum punching deserves a spot inward our garden...indeed, has earned a spot inward the garden. And so, hither it is, planted inward soil, together with blooming. What a tough petty fighter it is.
The existent object of my curiosity was the cherry trees. Are at that spot even hence cherries on the trees? Yes! The ripest ones are way upwards high...out of our reach, fifty-fifty alongside a ladder.
The ones nosotros tin attain are even hence green, but they're coming along.
Searching, I flora a ripe 1 I could truly reach, together with hence I picked it together with popped it into my mouth. It's 1 of the Bings together with oh, hence sweet. That's 1 the raccoons won't get.
My Sun dappled truthful cat was alongside me on this outing.
I'm keeping an optic out for those pesky raccoons for you, Mom. Now how almost some treats equally a vantage for my difficult work?
So ended our walk outside. We headed within to produce some housework, together with and then I needed to travel out for my twenty-four hours of the month downtown. On the way habitation I picked upwards some aeroplane seed, together with hence it was simply about 3:30 past times the fourth dimension I got into the sewing room yesterday. Looking to a greater extent than closely at the block I'd left off alongside the twenty-four hours before, I realized I'd forgotten to give it a flange. Yes, equally a affair of fact, that is my seam ripper on the right.
Okay, hence I fixed that. Do non mess alongside me, Minnesota. I receive got a seam ripper together with I know how to role it.
After that, I had fourth dimension to brand 3 to a greater extent than blocks. This 1 from a store inward Pendleton, Oregon. Sadly, the network informs me that this store is "permanently closed." Too bad, because this was a prissy petty shop. And nosotros revere salmon hither inward the Pacific Northwest, hence this was a prissy observe for my regional print. As for the shop, yous tin read my weblog post almost it right here.
Next upwards was this 1 from Stitch 'N Snip inward Garden Valley, Idaho. You tin read my weblog post almost it right here. Garden Valley, Idaho, is a tiny petty town along the Payette River on the route to Stanley, Idaho. It's population during the 2010 census was simply 394, together with hence it's amazing such a modest community tin back upwards a quilt store similar this one. The network tells me it is even hence open, alongside a spider web presence right here.
We got into quite a pickle alongside our 5th bike when the transmission on our truck failed at this stop, together with nosotros ended upwards dorsum inward Boise earlier nosotros were able to motion along on our way to Stanley. I mightiness receive got chosen a dissimilar cloth had I known a drama was almost to unfold inward the parking lot. Instead, ignorance was bliss for the moment, together with I chose this 1 inward award of beingness along the river where anglers congregate, line-fishing for bull trout. Do they role line-fishing lures? I don't know, non beingness a fisher person, but this cloth seemed perfect to me at the time.
There was fourth dimension for simply 1 more, together with the side past times side 1 on my listing was this store inward Jefferson, Louisiana, which happens to live on correct side past times side door to New Orleans. It came highly recommended past times several people, together with hence nosotros made the drive to come across it. It was worth it. You tin read my post almost it right here. Although nosotros weren't at that spot for Mardi Gras (in fact, nosotros actively avoided it), our catch was simply earlier the tricentennial celebration together with hence this Mardi Gras impress was a must. You tin come across some groovy photos of the Mardi Gras celebration right here. The Quilted Owl is even hence inward business. Its website is correct here.
There are even hence 2 to a greater extent than blocks to brand for this 3rd row of the quilt. When those are finished, I'll sew together the row together together with and then sew together the whole row to the quilt. I'm hoping it'll facial expression similar something alongside the improver of the 3rd row.
As for today, I'm continuing on my twenty-four hours of the month streak. Today I'm getting my annual optic exam, together with I await I'll demand novel glasses. I'm having to accept to a greater extent than fourth dimension to focus on my embroidery inward the morning, together with that simply seems to live on the way of things for now. My twenty-four hours of the month is this morning, together with hence at that spot should live on some to a greater extent than fourth dimension for sewing this afternoon...although, who knows if I'll live on able to come across anything later my exam. The conditions has turned sort of overcast. Some pelting would live on nice. What self-respecting Oregonian asks for rain? That is the question.
