Terriamn - That is a fast transition from TX to MN! I'm glad the weather was ok until the very end. Driving in white out is stressful, but you did it!! I hope the funeral is as positive an event as it can be. I am sorry for your family's loss. The sunset picture in Kansas is beautiful! You have a good eye.
SBG - I am glad you are home safe after your adventures in Louisiana. It sounds like it was as joyous as it could be. So you and DH had antiques to shop for? See anything good?
Janice -- You are going to be FMQ a ton now that you have access to the machine!! Congratulations! You are quickly ramping up your quilting techniques. Selfishly, I am waiting to see your end products.
