Let’s see if I can remember what I posted. (73 years old – it’s not guaranteed!)
Well, we’re in the busy months – Memorial Day is early this year … So our show is earlier. I’m entering 6 projects: A QOV that will hang and then be presented to a Veteran we met in February in Gold Beach. My second GK graduation quilt. A baby quilt. A table runner.
Patti and I chaired the guild’s “April Challenge”. The theme was “Life on the Coast”. You could talk about your life; the wildlife; the activities around us. I pictured “rush hour traffic” caused by Elk on the highway!! But no one took me up on that!
We had 12 entries and they were all very well thought out! Impressive! And of course, all of them will be in the show. Here’s a preview:
I’ve been walking Sportshaven Beach and the loop into the commercial harbor a few times a week. Earlier this year I posted the Sea Lions down there. But walking today, I realized I haven’t highlighted Sportshaven. There is a sculpture at the entrance to parking for the beach.
And my favorite part of a small town – Harbor provides a bin of sand toys at each beach ramp. I’m not sure who is more excited – the kids or the parents of the kids!!
Here’s a picture: from the left – ocean, beach, ramp, driftwood, sidewalk, doggie bag station, bin of sand toys and parking lot!
Today DH and I walked into Harris Beach. One of our favorite beaches for years. BUT they decided to charge $10 for cars parking. We live across 101 about a 1/2 mile from the main entrance. Luckily our street joins the way to walk in from another (secret) entrance!
I hate trying to cross 101 - people be crazy! So I only go with DH - who holds my hand and tells me when to run!!! We walked thru the park to our favorite bench overlooking the ocean. We sat for a while thinking of memories of Harris Beach days.
