Lovely prints…

Finally got my pictures uploaded to my laptop!

First night (Thursday) at a local brewery (delicious taco truck tacos, yes!)

Breakfast on Saturday - there was also a fancy spread for bagels not pictured. The first donut picture is a display in the shop, so fun.

Amusing window in the mall.

So happy to see you!!

You need to at least post your mom’s work! I am so happy to see her painting. We have missed you and Lana…our crafting “baby” has turned out to be a wonderful young woman!

I didn’t get any pictures during the exchange, but here’s a shot of my loot.

I received this this cool coffee dyed check register book from @megwell in a safe space, but of course as those go I can’t remember where it is. We swap atcs a lot, so I may choose to store hers in it, or I may use it to track the ornaments in the upcoming ongoing ornaments swap…not sure, but it’s unique and it’s mine! Thanks.


Borrowed picture from Megan.

Does anyone have the group photo from the pool (from Saturday afternoon)? If so, will you PM it to me? I promise I won’t post it anywhere, but I’d like to have a copy of it for whatever trip journal I end up making for this shindig. Thanks!
