Kickoff to Summer

I had a few hours at home yesterday and made the quilt transition to summer/patriotic. 

I know you all see these every year, so feel free to skip. But for any new readers here's my 

"I love America house"

This is my eclipse quilt but reminds me of fireworks too.

It was really bright when I was snapping photos so these aren't the best. 

The guest room....waiting for a guest!

Another spare bed.

 This was a round robin with friends. It is pretty special to me.

The little quilt made by a friend. 

We had plans to go a short ways from home for Memorial weekend. We NEVER travel on busy weekends, but we thought it may not be that busy since people are supposed to be staying close to home. Yea, right!  Traffic started on Wednesday and by Friday it was crazy. We changed our minds a few times and finally we talked to a customer and they let us camp on private property about 1 hour from home- in the desert. 

 Here is an old sheep shed. 

Hopefully this video will work. We were camped near the John Day River. Spring time causes it to be a bit muddy, but we weren't swimming anyway. It was nice to hear the river at night. We really had a relaxing time. 

And because we had both dogs they weren't at home protecting the property from hungry deer. Our poor newly planted apple tree was almost nibbled to death. 

I hope ya'll are doing well. I feel like life is looking up!

Much love
