Hello!

We are home! As of an hour ago. We had a fantastic trip, loved this new state park we'd never been to before, but, as always, it's good to be home again. Looks like summer ended and the fall rainy season has begun while we were gone. We were 250 miles from home - 5 hour drive. The drive to and from almost anywhere is really great except for the last (or first, when we're leaving) 30 urban miles surrounding our little town. Several wrecks on wet roads caused traffic snarls aplenty, but our angels got us through it all.

Now - Halloween! Tina, thanks for giving Valerie my address. Val, I'll be looking forward to receiving your blocks next week! They are pretty cool!

How is everyone else doing? Does anyone else need my mailing address?

Great news to hear all around about your trip and that you made it home safely. Home is always great to come back to that is why it is so hard for us to decide if we are going to move. We always love coming back home.

I have all 4 of the Candy Corn sections pieced and cut. Now need to cut the black sections to go on each one and then sew them together. I thought I had blown it by cutting the middle section on 4 of the 4-piece blocks but they measured 6.5" so we are good. Just a smaller middle section - WHEW!!!

Had to take Rob to the hospital this afternoon so no more sewing today. His nose started gushing at 3ish but he didn't tell me until 5:15pm UGH!!!!! He now has a balloon in and it comes out on Sunday AM so no church for us.
Will continue working on the blocks. We need to go to Van Nuys on Tuesday and Bakersfield on Wednesday. The following week it is LA on Wednesday. Other than these appts we are homebound except for a few PT appts. here in Cal City. THANK the Good Lord I have Bobat Westpoint to put me back together, PT wise that is :) I need days to SLOW DOWN - LOLOLOL!!!!!

Good morning,

We are in the middle of a 2-day rain storm here. First rain since June. And a bit of wind. Hope our dry stressed trees hold out!

TINA & VAL, I'll be watching for those blocks!

TERESA - Thanks for checking in. Sorry to hear about Rob. Hope all turns out OK for him. That's a lot of running around for appts. Sounds like you are coming down the home stretch with your blocks and will have yours in the mail soon, too!

We are almost there, ladies! I've so enjoyed all of your blocks. You're really all outdone yourselves with this one!

Good morning!

I forgot about having the outlaws here yesterday, so I will finish up my blocks today, double-check for size and then have them in the mail tomorrow. Yay!

VAL & SHARONA - I got your messages! Thank you! I'll be waiting happily to add your fun blocks to the tote of other fun blocks! We just might be able to wrap this swap up early! It would be great if we could get our quilts finished in time for Halloween, wouldn't it?
