Sorry, just had to add that....so, we come back home on Thursday late,,,,,Friday we go see sister and family at the lake ,,,decided to come home and pack up trailer (which I didn't finish unpacking) and pull it out there at HalfWay Lake and camp for the long weekend...phew, had a blast,,,now have more pics but will sort out and post on weekend...OH, I also yesterday started to work on my Mystery quilt , need to finish the top by the 14th of this month...lol.. then bring into the quilt shop to show that I've done my homework...
