Light from the Past
“How long did it take you to get home?” Sharon led her neighbor, Anne, into the kitchen.
“Five hours. The low water crossings were flooded.” Anne sat down at the counter. “How long has the electricity been out?”
“Not sure.” Sharon lit her grandmother’s oil lamps as the light started to fade. “It was off when I got here. Care for a peanut butter and jelly sandwich with some chips?”
“Best offer I’ve had all day.” Grateful for the light from the lamps, Sharon and Anne raised their water bottles in a toast to Mother Nature and Trudy, Sharon’s grandmother.

Some of Patty’s Thread
“Thread” was one item on the supply list for my art quilt class. Patty brought some of hers. Yes, only some. I brought one of those thread containers to class. Yes, I have more thread than what fits in one container. But I’m not saying how much. No, can’t make me.
The painter’s tape is to secure the boxes for the trip home. We were packing up when I photographed these boxes.
Soft Pretzels
It’s a wonder I got any work done at my art quilt class. This is one example of the snacks waiting for us right outside our classroom door.
Outdoor Fireplace
I wandered around the facility where my art quilt class was held and walked past this outdoor fireplace. It was still too hot for it to be lit, but I can imagine how much fun it will be in colder weather.
