    What a great trip for both of you! I have done the same thing a couple of times. Once with a friend for a week in Colorado-we had enough projects for months and once with our families to Colorado again, our husbands fished and we sewed. It was wonderful!

    What a great vacation! My DH is also a fisherman and that sounds like the ideal weekend to both of us. We'll have to try that sometime.

    One persons dream vacation is not another persons dream vacation. Personally I think it sucks to be them. I sooo understand and can see your view while sewing in my head and am totally jealous. Lucky you and they don't have a vision of peace. Hope you get to do it again next year.

    Yes I understand the take along quilting porject. Every summer when my husband &I make a trip I always take my sewing machine and supplys with us. Never know when I will have down time then can sew. sitting in an RV with ideal hands can't go to waste (: :D Sometimes we are very buy so sew is left sit but out in the desert I have to have something besides TV or computers to do. then it's sew, I precut quilts to take along, then it's just sew . Love it there's less house work in the RV also :thumbup:

    Gee! you sound pretty busy lady, what a great sounding family you have. Mine are all 7 grown up on their own, but they do get Mom made quilts for gifts. even the grandchildren (22) have at least a couple quits each. Such a joy in my life they all are. I worked for 34 years full time ,now my quilting is retirement pleassure.
