We decided this was so much more personal than private messages on Facebook. Loved the Gilmore Girls and the Crown. I watch Netflix on the iPad while sewing.quiltergirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10460427097632403458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-78100692460272046862016-11-28T13:52:41.180-05:002016-11-28T13:52:41.180-05:00Thanks for sharing your trip.

He is gone now but you brought back wonderful memories for me.

Be careful if you return in July, specifically around the 4th. They spray heavily for mosquitoes, and if you're allergic, you'll earn a trip to the ER. And that ain't no place to be on July 4th in Key West, lemme tell ya! Lots of gory stuff, most of it alcohol induced, shall we say.<br /><br />Loved your pictures; I could smell the salt air on the drive...oh wait, maybe that's because my windows are open and the wind is from the west...we are fortunate enough to live close enough to the coast that when the wind is right, we can smell the ocean. If you come back up the west coast, email me, and you can stop over here and I will SHOW YOU THE MANATEES...LOTS AND LOTS OF 'EM. they are HERE! :) Not quite by the hundreds just yet, but there have been several spotted already. And y'all can swim with 'em, if you'd like..just don't touch. (ha, like don't touch the quilts, right? Seriously, though, don't touch - it's a felony)kchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15012014316959117841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-81464018972927637862016-11-27T17:37:18.825-05:002016-11-27T17:37:18.825-05:00Bonnie,

We can both relax and find quiet things to do even in the hustle and bustle of the area. Another thing that made me smile was your four patch tutorial and the seam spinning. The lightbulb went on and I made the most perfect ever four patches for my En Provence quilt. Thank you for teaching me!
