The last time it wasn't raining (Saturday, I think) I hung my latest quilt to be finished from a door frame on our porch and took its picture for the quilt gallery I keep at right. I loved this view of it hanging alongside one of the geraniums we kept alive in the south window through the winter, with the hanging basket of glorious impatiens, a present from Doug, in the background. It all just says "summer is here."
We thought Sam would be going back to Edwards- ville on Sunday, so Norm gave him a good combing out on the porch on Saturday. I figured I should give Norm equal time with Sam on the blog. As it turned out, Sam stayed with us until Tuesday night so Matt could rest up from a stressful IT project.
Sam and Matt will be heading for Florida this upcoming weekend, probably. Doug is doing some research related to his book on Southern Gospel at a university archive in Nashville this week, and he'll attend a conference in Indiana before heading for Florida, too.
Norm and I are relaxing for a couple of days, after a hectic weekend setting up, helping to staff, and helping to take down our church's booth at the 2009 Gypsy Caravan sale. A report with pictures is on the Compton Rising Blog if you are interested.

I love the quilt with the flowers. The quilt looks quite beautiful. Looking forward to seeing you soon. kl
Retirement gives me time to write nonfiction, travel, quilt, enjoy time with Norm and research family history. Home Stories is a journal of daily life for interested family and friends; Thursday's Child has occasional essays on ideas or family history. Compton Rising Still chronicles the mission and events at our church.
