You'd endure disappointed if I didn't lay a piddling awesome alliteration on you lot earlier our trip is over, wouldn't you? We're habitation now, in addition to there's quite a flake of catching upwardly to do, both blog-wise in addition to unpacking-wise. So let's merely dorsum upwardly to when nosotros left Reno, Nevada, yesterday morning. It was going to endure a long twenty-four hours of driving, in addition to thus nosotros got an early on start. It wasn't long earlier nosotros crossed the edge into northern California.
It's a beautiful purpose of the country, ringed alongside mountains.
We drove miles in addition to miles of opened upwardly highway.
There were beautiful puffy white clouds inward the sky.
And nosotros saw lots of barns. I was wishing I could bring gotten a amend shot of the 1 below. With the brilliant snow-capped peaks inward the background, I could exclusively larn it inward silhouette.
Some of these appeared to endure abandoned.
Eventually, nosotros crossed the edge into southeastern Oregon. It's ever practiced to encounter this sign in addition to know we're getting some home.
We had a dainty see alongside our friends inward Bend concluding night, in addition to a rattling dainty dinner out. Our twenty-four hours of driving was much shorter today, in addition to thus I had some fourth dimension to pass slow-stitching this morning. Now I've moved the hoop to the bottom correct side of the design. This 1 is coming some existence finished, in addition to thus it volition endure fourth dimension to sew together the ix blocks into a quilt top.
If northern California was beautiful, fundamental Oregon is fifty-fifty to a greater extent than so. The jagged peaks of the Cascades are breath-taking. Ahead is Mt. Jefferson.
These are the Three Sisters.
This 1 is Mt. Washington.
This side past times side 1 is Three Fingered Jack.
We stopped off at the Stitchin' Post inward Sisters. I've blogged most this quilt store before, in addition to thus I won't create it again. You tin read my previous postal service most it right here.
Wanna encounter that quilt hanging out front? Tempting, isn't it?
Here's the information most it if you're interested.
For this visit, I was specifically on the hunt for ii fabrics to complete off the Sundress quilt. I needed a xanthous corporation or a tone-on-tone. I liked this one.
And I needed a modest scale multi-colored impress alongside the colors of the quilt inward it. I liked this one.
The kickoff 1 I selected was this one, but it didn't bring plenty color inward it.
But then, I noticed this...
Well. Say no more. Two yards, please.
And thus nosotros continued on our way. When nosotros encounter Mt. Hood come upwardly into view, nosotros know habitation isn't far away.
In most an lx minutes nosotros were home, in addition to don't you lot suppose the kitties were happy to operate out of the trailer. Smitty seemed to breathe it in.
Here's a truthful cat on a mission.
This piddling mortal was none also happy to encounter cats larn inward on the scene. He scolded in addition to scolded them.
So at that spot are lots of blooming things inward the garden to grab upwardly on, but I'll salve that for tomorrow. We're expecting pelting for a practiced purpose of the day. I'll endure spending the twenty-four hours unpacking the trailer, making upwardly a grocery list, in addition to putting things dorsum to normal.
