Not much to report for 2 days. Off to the pool. Enjoy visiting with my Canadian neighbors from last year. they come for breakfast/coffee each morning by the pool. Their daughter arrived Wed night. Thurs nite they went to the Organ Pizza Stop. They really enjoyed it. Thought it would be a good place to take their other daughter/baby after they arrive on Friday. I finished the twisted table runner but not happy with it. Note to other Nerdy Quilters: I knew the fabrics were too "blendy" "matchy-matchy" for that pattern. This is a good example of what NOT to do. When a pattern needs contrast-use contrast. I've been waiting for a pattern to arrive. It's a sampler of cathedral windows. It finally arrived yesterday. I've not gone through the fabrics I bought along the way to see if I have what I need or to make a quick run over to the Bernina store that's close by. The temperature officially got to 100 at the airport yesterday. the truck said 99 as I went to the movie theatre at 5 to escape the heat. Saw the King's Speech. Still lots of people going to see it. Its the end of the month, so lots of people are leaving the resort. There was a motor home down the street from MN. He kept waxing a small part of his jeep and his RV daily to get around both of them before they left. Not sure if he made it or not. They were pulling out as I was coming home from the pool yesterday. I stopped and gave them a queen's wave. Talked with Marie. She made reservations for us for Tues nite at the AZ Opry. It's just down the road in Apache Jct. Dinner theatre. Should be good. Variety show is on now. Seems kind of empty around here. Both of my neighbors have already left. The old guy from Hartford has his for sale now. Still enjoy my pool ladies. Picked up another book from the library here. Just a sleezy little book. 1/2 way through that one, too. Haven't felt like sewing-just staying in the AC. Haven't done anymore with the Rte 66 quilt. Waiting to see some long arm designs.
