Free Day

We took the 24-hour interval off from riding yesterday. We were soundless optimistic that we'd move able to larn novel tires on the ATV's, too nosotros needed to get got tending of life's trace of piece of job organisation inwards the way of grocery shopping too laundry. It turned out to move a prissy day. I spent quite a flake of fourth dimension on my slowly stitching inwards the morning.


Also, I made some changes to the cubby situation. From previous posts, yous mightiness think I was leaving the left-most of the iii doors open. We aren't using this infinite at all since it requires climbing over the bed to larn to it. It's a perfect identify for the kitties to claim their cubby tranquility areas. Sadie, especially, needs her purrivacy. This was working okay, except that ane time ane truthful cat (usually Sadie) took upwards residence there, thence Smitty couldn't larn past times her to inhabit the residue of the infinite available.


They similar to prevarication inwards the infinite where the closed doors are. It's a modest area, too the closed door allows them to slumber without falling out...kind of similar the rails on a bunk bed.

So yesterday, it occurred to me that if I opened the centre door, they could each role the infinite to either side without having to larn to a greater extent than or less ane another. (I hope that makes sense.) So I opened the centre door, too moved their petty quilts to either side.


But kitties exercise non similar change, too they were rattling suspicious of this novel arrangement. Sadie was the starting fourth dimension to sweat it out. Then, I tried lifting Smitty upwards to exhibit him that he likewise could get got a space, but nada doing. You tin Pb a truthful cat to the cubby, but yous can't brand him jump. Instead, he moved to the infinite beside the bed. You never know. There could move a veterinary inwards there, or something, too he was taking no chances.


By afternoon, they had it figured out. Smitty took the correct side.


Sadie took the left.


And everything was correct inwards their world.

Driving into town, our starting fourth dimension halt was the quilt shop.


It's my 3rd or quaternary catch to this shop. When nosotros visited Moab the starting fourth dimension time, I don't think I'd taken upwards quilting yet. Since then, we've visited every fourth dimension we've come. It's a nifty petty shop. I've written almost it before, too thence I won't become over all of that again. If yous desire to read to a greater extent than almost it, yous tin banking enterprise check this quondam spider web log postal service correct here.

Insofar equally blooming things are concerned, the desert sunflowers get got been our constant companions this trip. There was a pretty bed total of them only exterior the front end door.


Just within the door were these petty cards, wrapped inwards cellophane, too suitable for framing. I knew you'd desire to come across them.




Also only within the door was this pretty trace of fabric. I never pay much attending to manufacturers or the names of lines. I only loved the colors inwards these amongst their corals too navy blues.


They had a prissy pick of patriotic fabrics. I looked at these for a while. Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 honey friend from high schoolhouse asked me to brand him a quilt featuring the Marine Corps emblem a patch back. I know what I'm going to exercise for him, but I demand some fabrics. I've been looking at each quilt store for something suitable, too I looked at these for a long time. The ane on the bottom shelf too to the correct caught my eye. I'd demand it inwards both ruby-red too blue, however, too amongst solely blueish available, I passed these by.


Moving on, at that spot seems to move a resurgence inwards ombre prints. I looked for something for a projection a few years agone too couldn't discovery anything suitable. Now, I'm seeing them everywhere I go.


This store ever features patterns from local artists. There were kits made upwards for these patterns depicting dissimilar formations from Arches National Park. That's Delicate Arch on the left, Balanced Rock inwards the middle, too the Three Gossips on the right.


Also, these stained drinking glass peppers. I've seen this ane on previous visits.


In their dorsum room was a proficient provide of pretty batiks.


Also, to a greater extent than patterns from a dissimilar local artist. I similar this petty quilt of the claret loving cup cactus.


The creative someone is Charlotte Purcell Gary, too at that spot were several of her patterns available. You tin see her gallery correct here.

I was on the hunt for my regional print, too these held promise. I was wishing at that spot was something ATV related, but they were all almost Jeeps. We get got a Jeep, too we've driven a Jeep rental on the backroads inwards Canyonlands National Park. I kept looking, but didn't dominion these out.


When I was create to leave, I made my selection. I picked upwards a fatty quarter of this ane for my futurity Polaroid quilt.


And this ane from that starting fourth dimension trace I'd seen only within the door. There was solely 7/8 of a yard left on the bolt, too thence I purchased all of it. She solely charged me for 3/4 of a yard.


From there, nosotros did our grocery shopping too thence headed dorsum to the RV for tiffin too relaxation. By belatedly afternoon, nosotros got the telephone call upwards that our tires were in, too the store was able to mountain them for today's ride. Take a await at these babies. If yous desire to pass a whole lot of coin on something completely boring, consider tires for your adjacent bank-account-emptying purchase.


We figure we'll move dead before they demand to move replaced again.

While Mike was off getting tires, I finished upwards what remained of the electrical current hoop on my slow-stitching project.


I couldn't check quite all of it when I moved my hoop, but I'm rattling closed to having this ane finished. Good affair we're heading for abode tomorrow.


We'll exercise some to a greater extent than riding today on this, our terminal 24-hour interval inwards Moab. Tomorrow we'll caput out. Many of yous encouraged us to become dorsum to Dinosaur National Monument, too I'll admit, nosotros were sorely tempted. Nevertheless, we've decided to salve that for some other trip. If nosotros exercise that, it volition hateful a mad dash for home, too I think the "mad dashing" business office would larn inwards difficult to bask the monument. We'd similar to larn inwards a leisurely trip home, too get got a few days to larn organized before picking upwards amongst life equally usual.

We haven't made whatever decisions almost where we'll move riding today, but I'll move dorsum tomorrow to tell yous almost it.

Edited to nation I neglected to postal service a film of my completed yo-yo's from before inwards the month. I finished these upwards during the calendar week I was offline.


Finishing them upwards was my September OMG, too amongst this beingness the fourth dimension to link up, there's no fourth dimension similar the introduce to exhibit them off.
