Thread Tales From A Scrappy Quilter

We went camping as usual over Spring Break and brought along one of Mick's friends as we often do.    Cooler than normal weather and an injury had a big impact on our week.  I had bronchitis and something going on with my ears, hubby commuted every day to work plus I think I got a spider bite that still hurts.  It was a nice break but it was difficult!   Too windy most days for my sewing set up outside.   I had to set up in our very small pop up camper each day.  Mick and Anthony went out a couple of times on the boat with Uncle Vic plus had kayaks, bikes and all the activities at the center.  We ended up at the local ER on Wednesday with a badly sprained hand from a tether ball injury.   Between the injury and a cold front, we packed up Saturday and returned home.  Too cold to even sit outside!   Oh well,  we still had fun.  Until next time!       ...

We went camping last week for Spring Break.   Awesome weather, cold nights with most of the days warming to 60's and 80's for the last 2 days.   Hubby was not off work so just the little boys and me by day.   I enjoyed not having days and nights filled with lots of running - we just stayed at the campground.  Most days found me setting up my sewing area by mid-morning and working on my projects until time to start dinner.   Breaks were enjoyed by the waters edge or a stroll through the property.  The boys not only had the regular camping activities but the rec center had activities scheduled all day and night with bingo and different card or dice games, scavenger hunts, volleyball competitions, even a dance.   We were set up on the little woodsy section that opens up just beyond that bridge to the large lake.   Tulip Fields progress last week   My picnic table set up. ...
