at the Brushy Mountain Apple Festival, today. I only saw about a third of it, but that was plenty for my old legs.

I caught up with friends and former students! I smelled some good smells and saw some awesome arts and crafts.

What are garbage fries?
I meant to come back here!
Moonshine Sauce?
Bees!
I thought about getting a “Nana” necklace.
This lady had some cool fused glass, too!
Sand art was a hit with the kids!

There was a band stand set up in the little corner park. I got to hear my friend, Eric Ellis, pick a little banjo.

Just a pretty pot of petunias. If you know me…
The rains arrived and ran me off, lugging a peck of apples!

Ta Done!!!

Well, almost. I need to seal it, then I can hang it! Look how translucent and stain-glassy it is!

Earlier, today, I watched Christi Friesen begin creating a beaded background for a couple of sea horses she had sculpted.

Even earlier, I went to church. It wasn’t creative, just heartwarming. I spotted a dear cousin, and sat with him. We were talking, and a voice beside me said, “What are you doing sitting up here near the front?” as she slid in beside me.

“I’m sitting with my cousin,” I replied, “and now I’m sitting with my oldest friend!” It was a great blessing.

So was the birth of my daughter, 50 years ago, today!

My best friend and I get together on Face Time to create at least a couple times a week. We highly recommend this for other friends who love to create together.

Laura knit on a baby blanket, today, and I worked on this, again.

We don’t always work on the same craft, but we always laugh!
