Finally checked back with this thread. Chautauqua was beautiful. The leaves were just starting to turn. Eleanor Burns, as usual, was so much fun. Class was in four parts, so we only had her for one part. (For the price paid for the class, that was a BIG disappointment!) She and Sue Bouchard did join my friend and I twice in the dining room for meals. Being with her is just like being with your best friend. She is so down to earth. We all talked about quilting, our kids, our husbands, (her ex husband!). Was a wonderful weekend with perfect weather!
