CAPE COD continued.......

Our lodging and car rental are booked!!! Now we are searching for great airfare tickets. Right now the best is $780 for the two of us thru Jet Blue. I think we can do better.

Whale watching is going to be great. We'll probably go out a couple of times!

The downside; we wanted to see the Boston Red Sox play, but they are on the road the whole time we are there.

CAPE COD

So, we're planning a trip to Cape Cod this year. One of my dreams is to go whale watching on the ocean. That's the main reason we are going. Hunting for a cottage to stay in has been difficult. They go from Saturday to Saturday (when you're staying for a week). That doesn't fit into our schedule but we found someone who will work with us. It's costing a little more, though. We are staying in Provincetown. Also, during our trip, Kirk is going flyfishing for stripers on the flats. There are lots of lighthouses; I've read that some of the BEST whale watching is there: humpbacks, minkes, finbacks, seis, pilots, and, of course, dolphins and porpoises. We are very excited to be on the Atlantic Ocean. The cottage we most likely will get is beachfront. We are now searching for decent airfare tickets.

WALKING

So I went and walked with Janalee tonight. It felt good. I even sweated some. We walk for an hour at her school where she works. We figure we get in about 3 miles. When it warms up, we'll be outside. We live on a hill and the last mile is all incline. REALLY gives you the BURN!!!

Sick of being SICK!

I'm so tired of being sick. I had just gotten over a head cold and then last Tuesday night my throat started getting sore again. Now, I'm talking thru my nose again and blowing it CONSTANTLY! I need warm weather, so I can get outside more!!!

I'm Back


I've had more than one person ask me why I quit my blog. I was just plain lazy. I've decided to do it again. I do enjoy working on a computer and learning new things. So.....here's what I've been up to. I made a Sampler quilt for a friend who sent it to her good friend who lives in and is from Japan. I've always wanted to make a sampler quilt, but I gave it away, so my goal is to make one for me to keep. I put 50 hours into it. It was fun learning the blocks. There are 30 in all (two of each). So I learned to piece 15 blocks that I haven't done before.

Our Family

This is our family photo from Kendall & Haylee's wedding.....except that Rocky couldn't be there due to coaching soccer at State.
