Yarmouth!

Isaiah and I had a mini vacation in Yarmouth last week. We stayed at the cabin, swam in the lake, playing many many games of crib, and visited with Isaiah's family. I had a book event with the Yarmouth Coles on the Saturday (called The Spirit of Litera-Sea"). It was nice to chat with other authors who have books out right now and to meet the welcoming, friendly staff at Coles. They said the turn out was better than last year, it was a bit of a rainy/muggy day so that probably helped as well as having all the authors talk on the local radio about their books. All in all, a great time on the other side of the province.

Temperature Quilt

My temperature quilt is coming along! I'm deep into the yellows and oranges now. I haven't sewn up the latest strip yet but this past week will introduce the first reds of the quilt (high of 25+). I hope we don't end up getting too many red days this summer because I really don't handle them well. I never seem to be able to keep up with how much salt I lose. At least the house stays relatively cool and I've been able to spend the past few days in front of a fan.

Mid-May 
Until mid-June!
