Day 211 of 2017

I startled this bunny in our front yard this morning. 
He is much smaller than the one I saw yesterday.

Day 205 of 2017

As you know I am participating in the Urbanologie Quilt Along. 
I am still a little behind but decided to take a different approach this week.
Since making the fabric choices and cutting the pieces 
seem to be the things I struggle with the most and are the most time consuming, 
I have decided to do the rest of the cutting before I tackle more of the sewing.  
So I present to you the blocks I cut today:  
Feathers, Pineapples, Poppies, and Antlers (not shown.)

Day 203 of 2017

The crew next door opened a lemonade stand today for the second day in a row.  
With our current weather it was a welcome sight.

Day 202 of 2017

This is an American Dagger Moth caterpillar. 
He was visiting my front porch this evening. 
Evidently his "fur" is toxic 
and will cause stinging, itching and possibly a rash if touched. 
I did not know this at the time I took the picture. 
Luckily, I did not touch him. 
I wouldn't have anyway.

Day 201 of 2017

It's been a long day starting with a very short night 
and a trip to the airport before dawn. 
The good news is that CJ made it to her destination without incident.
Now I really must go to sleep.

Day 200 of 2017

It's late and I have no picture so here is a picture of my favorite app. 
This is puzzle number 100 of 100. 
I guess I will need to get a new pack.

Day 198 of 2017

I have completed another block for the Urbanologie Quiltalong. 
I am behind a couple weeks due to my recent travels, 
but I am hoping to change that this week.

Day 197 of 2017

The sky was so interesting tonight. 
I don't think I have ever seen clouds like this before.

Day 196 of 2017

Pink clouds at the Prairie. 
Tonight Fireball and I took GB#3 to Symphony on the Prairie. 
Good times.

Day 194 of 2017

It rained so hard, so much, so fast that our street flooded again 
and our basketball went rushing down the street.  
I am afraid we will not see it again.

Day 193 of 2017

I tried something new tonight. 
It was yummy. 
Thanks, Little E.

Day 192 of 2017

I went to my quilting meeting tonight bearing gifts I bought in Colorado.

Sorry for the late post. 
Evidently I forgot to push the PUBLISH button! 
Let's just say I had a rough day.

Day 189 of 2017

I always seem to take the same picture when we attend the Symphony on the Prairie, 
so on this gorgeous night I decided to go with something different.

Day 184 of 2017

M and I spent most of the day trying to get to the other side of Kansas. 
Most of Kansas looks like this. 
We saw cows and lots of modern wind turbines (aliens) 
and oil well pumps and cows and more aliens. 
But mostly we saw cows...lots of cows.

M's adventure begins. 
Today we drove over the Mighty Mississippi.

It appears we have a volunteer pumpkin growing near our front door.
