QE--short version is that I went to North Carolina (14+ hrs away) to see my sister and her family (went with Dad and two younger kids)...left last Friday at about 6am. We hit a couple quilt shops on the way down and a few more on the way home...got home tonight at 5:30pm. Long trip in a short time, but all-in-all fun.
More details later...need to catch up, rest a bit and finish unpacking.
