When you are retired and don’t have a rigid schedule, the most innocent errand can become an adventure. One day this week we headed out to sign some papers (it’s tax season, you know, ugh). A couple of quilts and cameras were tossed in the car, and off we went.
A stop at a park yielded a few shots of quilts. In the photo here, Granny Zee’s Baskets posed in front of an old church steeple.
My latest teaching sample, Portable Magic, posed on an outdoor window.
We have this thing about photographing cabooses, so Remember Me posed on this one.
The Drugstore Deli was our choice for a delicious lunch. This veggie quiche and salad were beautiful – and they tasted as wonderful as they look. The blue cheese dressing was homemade with chunks of cheese. Oh, my! You’ve gotta try that!
The lunch was even better when we realized old friends were sitting nearby and we had a chance to visit and catch up.
Within sight of the restaurant was a quaint old building I’d never noticed before. It’s been there, we’ve been there, but just never noticed it.
It is an old jailhouse now housing the historical society. The bars were perfect for posing quilts, as was an old theater bench outside.
I think Kaffe Fassett would love these brick walls!
I’ve written about the Drugstore Deli before, in this post.
The story of Granny Zee’s Baskets is here.
And details about Remember Me are here.
The book quilt, Portable Magic, is a sample I made for a class I recently taught. Details of that quilt will be in an upcoming post.
