Running around

Oh, what a glorious warm spring day it was! High about 66 F and sunny sunny sunny!!

This morning I went for a 3 mile walk with a girlfriend and the hell hounds. It was practically warm enough to shed the sweatshirt, but I didn’t. After the walk, I met up in Philomath with my sister to see the final days of the quilt show at the Benton County Historical Museum. Since it was International Women’s Day, it seemed like a perfect show to visit. The below quilt was one of my favorites. I’m not a fabric/quilty sort of person, but I really appreciate all the work that goes into each piece. My sister is a fabric nut. Maybe I should broaden that term to “textile nut”. If it involves fiber, she does it.

Back at home, the ornamental plum just started blooming today. Most varieties of daffodils are already up and blooming. My little clump on the back deck are getting closer. Only 3 buds this year.

Bring on Spring!
