The Most Beautiful Place in the World...

Sorry I have been MIA lately. I had a wonderful chance to spend quite a while camping (one of my favorite things to do in the world) at one of the most beautiful places in the world.

We went to the Redwood Forest. I adore trees! I am sad to say I have never been there til now. I would so move there in a skinny minute! It was breathtaking- the trees, the mist, the feeling just being there. My favorite was Stout Grove- if you have ever been there, then you will never forget it. I did not get many pictures of the grove- I was too involved in just being there. The pictures in my mind are permanent though.

It was the perfect time to go to the area- there was no one around and it was chilly- perfect hot cocoa weather. I also love me some hot cocoa :) The beaches were empty- I love walking on private black sand beaches- just breath-taking again!!

And the food- I am a seafood girl- that's what growing up in the deep South will do for you! We ate out, seafood, one meal a day. Yes, I got spoiled! We got stuck, due to SNOW, and got home a day late, but it was a marvelous time away. Camping is the best - wish we could earn a living that way, hehe! It's so neat to be together and see so many amazing things in this beautiful world- this trip will be a favorite forever :)

Keeping myself Busy!

I haven't had much time to sew lately! (I did get some gorgeous blue minky to back the orange and aqua color value quilt finally though- a LQS had a 30% coupon for the first customer- yay for being the early bird!) We headed out of town this past weekend- again, and this is what we brought back :). So needless to say, it has taken all my time! We are tickled though! A standard size Poodle- we also have a small toy size one too. We've just gone Poodle CRAZY!! It's a blast and a great dog for all of our outings and being our buddy!! Yipee for dog friends. And cute ones at that :)
