Prince George Supervisors Okay Shelter
Prince George County supervisors have given their okay to continue planning for a new animal shelter.
Enteros Design, P.C., of Petersburg, outlined plans this week developed with input from a committee that was made up of county officials, veterinarians, and people who live in Prince George. Among other things that committee toured five relatively new shelters in Virginia and North Carolina and checked cost estimates against new shelter construction in Henrico, King George, and Amherst.
The plan supervisors agreed to calls for a nearly 7200 square foot building with 50 dog kennels, that's ten more than the county has now, and 41 cat cages, 17 more than currently. The new structure is going be put up with durable, low maintenance materials and it includes a number of energy-saving measures. The price tag is $257 per square foot. The county had estimated $1.2 million for the project. The new estimate, that doesn't include buying land, runs close to $1.9 million.

A 33-year-old Islamorada man wanted in connection with a stabbing earlier this week has surrendered to law enforcement authorities in Miami-Dade.
Alexander Flores told police he stabbed his ex-girlfriend after breaking into her Plantation Key house.
She was airlifted to the Ryder Trauma Center in Miami on Tuesday. Her condition is listed as stable.
Monroe County Sheriff's detectives drove to Miami Wednesday and picked up Flores, who was charged with aggravated battery, burglary, criminal mischief and resisting arrest. He was booked into the Monroe County jail.
The arrest report says Flores entered the victim's bedroom and stabbed her in the chest. Flores reportedly told police he became angry when he learned his ex was seeing someone else. He also told police he got drunk, broke into her house and attacked the victim.
The 33-year-old Plantation Key woman told police that Flores held the knife to her throat after the stabbing and forced her to leave the house with him. As they walked out the door, a friend of the victim was outside and Flores ran northbound on the old highway.
The friend then drove the victim to Mariner's Hospital, where she was later airlifted for treatment in Miami.

instructions were not the best on how to assemble. but did figure it out.. pay attention as you are assembling.. make sure to use the glue.. glue seems pretty good. make sure to place glue on parts that require it. no recovering once you forget.
We were looking for something that would match our new *** kitchen equipped with wood countertop and white cabinets and this fits the bill perfectly! It's very attractive and we've gotten many compliments on it. Assembly was a challenge as the instructions were inverted so keep that in mind because some parts don't allow for disassembly. Overall, we'd highly recommend it.
Easy assembly and great design. Handles are very disappointing cheap plastic. Design and instructions good.
I am using this Butcher Block Bin as an island in my kitchen. It's working very well. After getting this, I realized it could have been a little bigger. I really like the trash bin option. Over all I am very satisfied with what I purchased. I have bought other items from overstock also. So far I am satisfied with the products I have purchased.
There was a lot of assembly for such an expensive product. The directions did not list all of the tools I would need to complete assembly as well. Some of the pieces were mislabeled in the directions, luckily I was smart enough to figure it out. The laminate cracked in half when I tried to put the screws in. The screws did not screw into the wood with a screwdriver, a power drill was needed but I don't have one. This was a waste of money and it is still sitting in my kitchen only half assembled and broken. I wish I could get my money back but I disposed of the packaging material as soon as I opened it.

Tangier Tourist Attractions
Tangier has been called the Gateway to Morocco and has been designated as the country's summer capital by King Hassan II. Overlooking the Straits of Gibraltar with a view of Spain's southern coast, Tangier is set on a bay and has been a magnet for travelers for millennia.
Museum of Moroccan Arts
The Museum of Moroccan Arts is housed in the prince's apartments of Dar el Makhzen. Built in the 17th century in the Tangier kasbah, it was originally the governor's palace.The north of the country is represented by firearms decorated with marquetry and pottery bearing motifs of flowers or feathers.The Fes room contains silks and illustrated manuscripts as well as centuries-old dishes decorated from golden yellow to the famous "Fes blue".
Museum of Antiquities - The Voyage of Venus
The Museum of Antiquities is home to the famous mosaic known as the "The Voyage of Venus" which depicts a goddess with a group of nymphs on a ship. The museum also includes Moroccan bronzes and mosaics from the Roman sites of Lixus, Cotta, Banasa and Volubilis.In room III, which is devoted to antique funeral rites, stands an amazing life-size model of a Carthaginian tomb, along with a group of small lead sarcophagi and a child's tomb buried in a clay jar.An Andalusian garden has a reproduction of an antique necropolis.
Museum of Antiquities - Bronzes and Mosaics
The former kitchens of the Dar El Makhzen palace contain bronzes and mosaics from the Roman sites of Lixus, Cotta, Banasa and Volubilis. The last was where the famous mosaic "The Voyage of Venice" was found.The history of Tangier and region is told on the first floor. In Room III stands a life-size model of a Carthaginian tomb, amid small lead sarcophagi and a child's tomb in a clay jar.
United States Legation
This museum traces the history of the relationship between the United States and Morocco. As Morocco was one of the first countries to recognize its independence, the U.S. established its legation in Tangier in 1821. It is the only historical monument to have remained in American possession since the birth of the American nation. On display is a letter from George Washington to Mouilay Abdallah, a collection of mirrors and works by Lecouteux and Ben Ali R'Bati, the first Moroccan "naif" painter.
Cape Malabata
Cape Malabata in one of the promontories projecting into the waters of the two seas. It looks towards the rising sun and is to be visited in the glow of the pre-dawn sky. The other is Cape Spartel which looks towards the Atlantic and the setting sun.
Cape Spartel
Cape Spartel in one of the two promontories projecting into the waters of the two seas. It looks towards the Atlantic and the setting sun. It is covered with rock-roses and cork-oaks. It is to be visited at dusk when the horizon is pink.The other promontory is Cape Malabata which looks towards the rising sun.
Gran Teatro de Cervantes
This theater was built when the Spaniards formed the largest non-Moroccan community in Tangier. Opened in 1913, the theater enjoyed its popularity in the interwar years. The building is now being restored with Spanish funding. The dazzling Art Deco facade is very impressive.
St Andrew's
St Andrew's church was consecrated in 1905 on ground donated by the Sultan Moulay al-Hassan in the 1880s. People buried at this church include: Emily Kean, an English woman who introduced vaccination to Morocco and Walter Harris who was a British journalist and a military advisor to the sultans.
Forbes Museum of Military Miniatures
American billionaire Malcolm Forbes brought together more than 115,000 lead soldiers. These figures re-enact the major battles of history, from Waterloo to Dien Bien Phu. In the garden 600 statuettes bear homage to the Battle of the Three Kings.
Grand Socco
The Grand Socco (the great souk) was once full of life, but still remains a busy place especially on Thursday and Sunday when Riffian peasants come to market. It is the center of things and the link between the medina and the new city.
Musee d'Art Contemporain
This art gallery is devoted to modern Moroccan art. It is located in the Dar el-Makhzen palace which was built in the 17th century. There are wonderful gardens outside the palace.
Terrace of the Idle
From the Terrasse des Paresseux look out at the spectacular view which has captivated so many artists. The harbor, the green and blue waters of Gibraltar and Andalusia in the distance.
Ville Nouvelle
This is the core of the new city and has been unchanged since the 1930s. There is an area with cafes and patisseries, a lively market that sells food, household products and all sorts of bits and bobs.
Grand Mosque
The Grand Mosque is said to have been the site of a Roman temple and at one time housed a church built by the Portuguese. The building itself is quite small.
The Marshan is situated on an elevated plateau where the rich once maintained their villas. It has remained somewhat unchanged and is home to many expatriates.
Mendoubia Gardens
The Mendoubia gardens is a quite place to find shade beneath the centuries-old fig and dragon trees. There also stand 30 bronze canons in this garden.
The medina is the old city of Tangier.
The kasbah is built on the highest point of the city and is isolated from the rest of the medina by its walls. The gate opens onto a large courtyard which leads to the Dar el-Makhzem, the former sultan's palace and now home to the Museum of Moroccan Art and the Museum of Antiquities. Both are known as the Kasbah Museum.
Kasbah Museum
The Kasbah is on the highest point of Tangier and is isolated from the rest of the Medina by its walls. The gate opens to the courtyard which leads to the palace museum devoted to Moroccan art. There is also a small archeological collection where most of the exhibits came from Volubilis.The palace was built in the 17th century and enlarged later by sultans. The carved wooden ceilings and a marble courtyard enhance the beauty of this palace.The Cafe Detroit on the second floor became famous for the trance musicians who played here in the 1960s. Musicians still play here while tourists drink mint tea and sing songs.Wealthy foreigners own most of the houses inside the Kasbah.
Petit Socco
The Petit Socco is the center of Tangier's medina. It has cafes and restaurants that you can sit for hours sipping tea and people watching. The pension houses the local brothel and this area is still reminiscent of its "sleazy" past.
Church of Immaculate Conception
The Church of the Immaculate Conception was built in 1880 by the Spanish. At that time, the Spanish made up one fifth of the population. This church is now closed.

Clever Driving with the Fulda Laser Check: A Fulda initiative to help drivers to drive carefully and economically.
Thanks to the 'Fulda Laser Check you will become aware of the dangers of insufficient tyre tread depth. The laser Check is a unique tool which allows to check tyre tread depths with a laser beam within seconds. |
On special "traffic safety" days organized most of the time on large parking lots, Fulda hostesses will let you know in less than 1 minute the remaining tread depth of your 4 tyres. |
But how does Laser Check work?
A laser measuring-head on a telescopic rod is moved over the treadprofile of the tyre. In the process the laser scans all the tread grooves of the tyre. The measured values are then stored using special software. Results can immediately be printed. The measuring range of the profilo-meter is between 0.0 mm and 11.0 mm. |
The Profilometer has been especially developed for car tyres and the measuring accuracy is greatest in the critical profile height range up to 4 mm. |
Insufficient tread depth: the danger continues to be underestimated
With the car Profilo-meter it has become possible to check a large amount of cars within a short period of time and to draw drivers' attention to wear rate of their tyres. This is especially useful when tyres have less than 3 mm profile depth left. Although legislation still permits tires with a remaining tread depth of 1.6 mm, it is recommended to replace tyres when they have less than 3 mm profile left (in case of winter tyres this is less than 4 mm). When your tires are worn, the risk of aquaplaning dramatically increases and braking distances on wet road might almost double. |
This is a danger which is still misjudged. A test campaign conducted by the Technical Control & Monitoring Association (Gesellschaft für Technische Überwachung - GTÜ) revealed that 16 percent of the vehicles examined failed to meet the legally required level, and even 25 percent were "absolute borderline". |
Worldwide awards and honours
For this road safety initative Fulda won tremendous awards in Germany, Europe and worldwide. · 'Goldene Brücke' from the DPRG (German Public Relations Association) · 'Goldene Pyramide' from the BDVT (Association of German Sales Promoters and Sales Trainers) · 'Silver Award' as a second-highest European award of the promoter's associations · 'European Gold Award' as the highest award from the European promotion trade journals · 'World PRO Award', the highest award worldwide for successful sales promotion, Chicago/1996 · 'One PS for safety' · 'Deutscher Verkehrssichheitspreis' (German Road Saftety Award) in gold |
Since its introduction the Laser Check has become a genuine success story. It has already been used throughout Europe, in Brazil, the U.S and Canada. |
For several years now, within a cooperative partnership, the Automobilclub von Deutschland (German Automobile Association – AvD) has been supporting the Laser Check as an important instrument in road safety. |

Postman's precious delivery was a lay-by baby (From Hereford Times)

Postman's precious delivery was a lay-by baby
9:10am Monday 16th April 2012 in Leominster
A postman took care of his most precious delivery yet when his wife gave birth in a lay-by.
Ian Sharp was making a midnight dash to Hereford County Hospital's maternity unit with his wife Vicky when he was forced to abandon the journey and help deliver the couple's second child in a layby near Wigmore on Easter Sunday.
The couple were left with no choice but to try to travel from their Knighton home to Hereford after being told there was no-one at a nearby birthing centre and that the midwife was two hours away.
But having only reached Adforton the couple, who picked up Ian's mum Sandra on the way, realised they were not going to make the remaining 20 miles to the hospital in time.
"I was suffering from shock and thinking about it now it's like something out of the TV show Casualty," said Vicky.
"Sandra was great; she is a Knighton First Responder and I think her training helped us so much. She didn't panic at all and helped to keep us both calm."
The couple named the baby Lewis and he weighed in at seven pounds, one ounce.

Corky Carroll's Surf's Up column
By CORKY CARROLL SURF'S UP! FOR ORANGE COUNTY REGISTER
I'm continuing with my series on the Orange County surf scene in the years I was growing up – before they connected the coastal communities with the freeways. Back then, in the mid 1950's through the mid-1960's, the route of choice, and necessity, was Pacific Coast Highway.�
Moving up the O.C. coastline from last week's stop in "Middle County," today we are gonna take a look at Newport Beach.� This is one of my favorite beach towns on the globe and was the home of some of the top surfers anywhere during the pre-freeway years.�
The lineup included a dude named Mike Marshall who became a real icon in Orange County surfing, not only as a top surfer but also as a great surfboard shaper and craftsman.� "Big Red" was also one of the real cool people in surfing and seemed to be everybody's pal.
Along with Mike there was probably the best unknown surfer, to the public anyway, of all time: the legendary Chris Marseilles.� I have talked about this dude many times here before so I won't go into great detail in this story.� But honestly, this guy was easily the hottest young talent on the California coast in the early 1960's.�
Along with Mike and Chris there were the likes of young Herbie Torrens, Bob Limacher, Denny "River Rat" Waller, George Weaver, Pete "the Fabulous Flame" Sellas and a whole bunch more.� The town was just packed full of great surfers in those days.� Almost anytime there was surf, the action in the water was a real show.�
The waves in Newport are beach break. There are a number of sand bars between the pier at the south and the river jetties to the north.�
The main spot and social hangout in town is called Blackies. This is named after the pub of the same name that sits right there in the same parking lot that you park to surf.� In the early years the local surf club was the Newport Beach Surfing Association and at one time you needed to have a surfing permit attached to your board to surf there.� You had to live in town to get a permit.�
That was a tad later than the period I am talking about though.� The NBSA was a strong contender in the club surfing events up and down the coast and matched up well with even the super clubs such as the Windansea Surf Club from San Diego and the Long Beach Surf Club.� �
The surfboard guru in town at the time was Joe Quigg.� Joe was one of the great surfboard builders of that time and he was also the mentor of Mike Marshall.� Even today a Quigg in mint condition will sell for many thousands of dollars at one of the vintage surfboard auctions.� �
A cool thing about Newport Beach is that with the bend in the coast it will have surf most of the year.� The spots near the pier, such as Blackies, work well in the winter while the spots farther to the north, all the streets are numbered and each street is its own surf spot, work best in the summer on south swells.�
One of the more memorable moments I have of surfing in Newport Beach came one afternoon at Blackies with a nice head high swell running. David Nuuhiwa and I had showed up to catch the action and were having a great session.� This was in the longboard days and noseriding was the big thing.� David was the best noserider of the era, no question about that.� But I was OK at it too and we were sort of going head to head in the long lefts coming off the pier.
I was inside by the beach, having just ridden a wave, when I saw David tuck into a nice hollow little wall.� He had one foot over the nose and got nicely covered by the wave.� All of a sudden he slid the fin out and came out of the curl with the fin in the front. At that time this move was not seen much, if at all, and was really spectacular.� The whole beach roared in unison.�
I just stood there with my jaw dropped and started clapping in appreciation.� Yeah, I was seething in jealousy. But it was just so good I could not help but give him the nod.
We were heavy rivals in those days but always great pals at the same time. This was just one of a zillion love/hate moments in our, what was then, extremely competitive surfing relationship.�

Aegis Kleais™, on 03 May 2012 - 08:02 AM, said:
Again, that's the problem. While it'd be possible to build a halfway decent dedicated anti-light medium, why would anyone ever, ever want to do that over a fast direct-fire heavy? What advantage would a medium possibly have at anti-light over a fast heavy armed with lasers or such?
People keep having this impression that Light = Fast, Medium = Less fast, Heavy = Slow, Assault = Very slow. While it is easier to make lighter 'mechs move faster it's very easy to end up with slow lights and pretty quick heavies; even assaults that move at a somewhat decent rate for what they are (64kph or higher isn't far out of the question). If we look at the listed medium defaults - the Centurion or Hunchback - why exactly are they better at hunting lights? In fact, of the heavies listed, the Catapult matches their speed and sports jets and the Dragon surpasses them.

So that, they wanted to focus all the attention on the speech playing with the possibility that when you aren't at home, maybe all your objects become alive, as if it was a part of Toy Story's movie. In this case magic happens with your Ikea furniture & objects.

Simple Machines > News and Updates
Statement regarding SOPA
No-one online is really safe no matter what software you use, be it SMF, YaBB, vBulletin, Wordpress etc if SOPA as is passes, now like many people in the forum I am not in USA, I am in Scotland, and even I worry what it means for SOPA passing, so even if you are outwith USA, its important that you also stand against it, many of the sites tell y ou how you can contact congress even if you are not from the US.
Also Gone:
I have over 40 domains currently hosted at Godaddy. I will be moving them as soon as funds are available.
Thanx for the article CoreISP. ;)
It takes 3 big steps for a bill to become a law in the US
1) Passed by the HR
2) Passed by the Senate
3) Signed by the president.
This bill originated in the HR, and has not passed the HR.
There is time. Contact your US Representative, your US Senator, and the White House.
Lets get real down to earth.
What do you think of the possibilities of Simple Machines site being pulled. Can you be 100% sure out of over 3 million post, 1000+ mods and themes, that even one of these doesn't violate SOPA. Remember all you need is a link to content that is suspected of copyright infringement as defined by this law.
What will be the value or compensation given back to Simple Machines which isn't in it for money. How can they give back to lost development time and even worse give back to the community that had to do without? How do you measure that in money? But this wouldn't effect Simple Machines only, but the entire community here, from the mod community to technical support. IMHO people will loose interest in Simple Machines and will sadly have to find a alternative solution. Even when Simple Machines comes back it will be dead in the water, no community involvement and lost time.
Like my previous post, you pull a site you kill it.
nend no-one is disagreeing with you. It is important that everyone stand against SOPA in its current format.

ReneeHairMedium BrownColor Treated HairFine or Thin HairChanged My Life!This stuff is AWESOME!!! And I am SUPER picky about my hair and products. My hair is thin and this product makes it so thick and shiny. All day straight and not goopy or oily AT ALL. It's like I have a whole new head of hair. It's fun to do my hair now. I have been getting all kinds of compliments. I flat iron 5 out of seven days and you would never be able to tell. It's shiny, healthy, thick and bouncy. Unbelievable stuff. I could not do my hair without it!!!posted Jul 30, 2011Link to this post
BrittneyNew YorkHairDark BrownOily HairDry HairCurly HairColor Treated HairThick or Coarse HairTruly Is My 'guardian Angel'My hair is pretty short, falling about an inch above my shoulders.And it is horribly stubborn. It's neither curly nor wavy, but an undesirable mix between the two. I used this product for the first time today on wet hair. After I sprayed it over my hair, I blow dried it as normal, occasionally running a brush through the strands. I have to say that I was impressed. Normally my hair would come out curly and puffy. Instead it seems to be pretty sleek and straight, with only a slight poof towards the ends. Which itself is a miracle.
Soon after I sprayed my hair once more and brushed it through, waiting a few minutes for the product to dry. I straightened my hair, admittedly faster and sloppier then I should. I was completely appeased when I saw the results of my rushed work. My hair was still straight, and I had no split ends.
Although this thing with this product is that it feels a bit dirty after straightening and drying. Sort of the feeling of letting your hair dry after you've been in chlorinated water. Not oily, but not clean. But the product has a great scent, cute bottle, and easy use.
Overall I will continue to use this product and experiment different ways to do so.

ENERGY SECRETARY: Steven Chu is charged with solving U.S. energy issues at the Department of Energy.
Image: Courtesy of DoE
More In This Article
President Obama has called for an "all of the above" energy strategy, ranging from taxpayer funding for electric vehicles to more drilling for oil and natural gas. The goal is to get a greater contribution from domestic renewable energy sources, such as the sun and wind, yet maintain cheap domestic energy from traditional fossil fuels.
"We're not going to be able to just drill our way out of the problem of high gas prices," Obama told a North Carolina crowd on March 7. "If we are going to control our energy future, then we've got to have an all-of-the-above strategy. We've got to develop every source of American energy—not just oil and gas, but wind power and solar power, nuclear power, biofuels."
The man in charge of actually implementing that all-of-the-above strategy for the past three-plus years is Secretary of Energy Steven Chu. Scientific American spoke with Chu in Austin, Texas, by telephone on March 7, the same day the Obama administration launched its new effort to make electric cars "more affordable and convenient to own and drive than today's gasoline-powered vehicles within the next 10 years."
[An edited transcript of the interview follows.]
Is domestic energy independence a useful goal?
It's certainly a useful goal to strive toward energy independence. It's analogous to striving for a zero-energy building [which produces as much energy as it uses]. The good news is that three and a half years ago we were importing about 60 percent of our oil; now it's around 45 percent and we see the trend going forward decreasing even more. Different people have different estimates. We are already largely energy independent in terms of electricity generation, although some electricity comes from Canada.
It's mostly transportation fuel I'm thinking about. That's a big cost driver, especially if you're importing 45 percent of it, spending $300 billion to $400 billion a year on petroleum. We have increased oil and gas production [in the U.S.]; we think it's already increased by 500,000 barrels per day. We think there's another million-barrel-per-day increase in production possible because of new technologies.
We also see a moderation, a flattening, perhaps even a decrease, in the use of transportation fuels as we go to more efficient automobiles. We see more diversification of transportation energy. Liquified natural gas for long-haul trucks has already been shown to make sense. The payback period [for the extra cost of the natural gas technology] is just four years if you drive 100,000 miles a year. Private companies are investing hundreds of millions of dollars to build natural gas infrastructure. If you build it every 200 miles on the highway, you can capture a significant market, perhaps even half the market.
Does that mean we've given up on combating climate change?
No, absolutely not. This is all very consistent with climate change. Natural gas as a transition fuel is great. It's half the [carbon dioxide emissions]. We still need to figure out how to capture its carbon, which we need by mid-century no matter what the large source is [whether coal, oil or natural gas].

Has anyone started manufacturing shirts or jackets in the US? Every time I try to deal with a company in the US they really like to take their time, and are kind of rude lol.If you haven't seen them yet, look at the Ilthy guys. They says that their letterman jackets are USA made. I have been trying to get info on this too but when it comes to cost and units, totally out of my budget for US made jackets, quality jackets like wool. Cotton with no lining can be found.

Need help deciding which logo would look best on the front of a 5-panel hat. Feedback appreciated.Honestly... just use the logo that you have for the "o" and then simply write "OFF THE MAP" underneath it.

@valleyLAI figured there was another meaning behind the name but can never be too sure with brands nowadays haha.
I agree, at the same time, I want to put SF "on the map" by putting my city name in the logo. Off the Map is meant to have a more metaphorical meaning like individuality and keeping to oneself. But I totally understand where your coming from. I'll put that into consideration.
im sure this isn't the first time you saw multiple brands use the same word on a tee before!www.wearebest.com

Lazy Blogger :c)
The weekend was filled with a BBQ for a co-worker of DH's that is being transferred to TX, quilting the mystery quilt for Quiltmaker so it can be sent off today.....
Sunday I spent BINDING and LABELING the quilt so it can be sent off today....
And because it's the mystery, I can't show you ANY pictures! Quiltmaker had sent me the fabric for the borders, backing and binding, and I took the whole shebang with me to Oregon to assemble there, and then quilt it over the weekend.
We also snuck out to a matinee yesterday afternoon to see the new Harry Potter movie. It still ends so open ended that you KNOW there has to be more to the story and just leaves you hanging! Still, it was fun to see how the kids have grown up, and I've enjoyed seeing these movies over the years.
Because I can't show you WHAT I was working on...I've uploaded a slideshow to webshots....
Sisters, Oregon, 2009
*NOTE* The slide show only holds about 1/2 the pics I uploaded to the album. To view them ALL...click the this LINK! You don't want to miss out on all the gorgeous antiques from the show.
The first couple of pics are of our "collaborative" booty from shopping! My friend Randy had a discount for her birthday....1/2 her age in percentage...I won't tell you how much we saved, but it was quite a bit..so she bought EVERYTHING for us, and we divvied up the bill when we got back. Randy, you just get better as you get older and get us a bigger percentage with each year that passes! *LOL*
Oh, my big purchases? A grill pan for my BBQ, a car phone charger for my iphone, and there was something else...oh yes....Lindt DARK CHOCOLATE WITH CHILI..OMGoodness...I know it sounds weird, but it is unbelieveably good in a very grown up chocolate kind of way ;c) Try it. If you don't like it, you can send the rest to ME! (It's got a slow burn..yummy...)
I'll warn you, when I take pics at shows..it's usually PARTS of quilts. Sometimes not even the whole quilt. Just a block, a border, a quilting design. Sometimes it's just a color theme I like...so if it looks like a 9 year old was taking these pics...that's why :c)
Near where my friend lives in Sun River, there is The High Desert Museum. In conjunction with the Quilt Show, they had a display of 1800's quilts that were just PHENOMENAL. I think I enjoyed seeing these quilts up close more than anything else I saw at the show itself. That said, I enjoyed the antique quilt booth at the show more than I enjoyed seeing any of the quilts hanging....
But it was fun to see that someone had entered an "Old Tobacco Road" and there was a "Carolina Crossroads" as well. FUN!
I'm just back from the gym.....need a shower, and then need to get down to some pattern writing for the book that is due to my publisher end of Sept. Time to get this baby on track!
Oh, and I DID bring home a really neat quilt with me. No photos of it yet because the battery on my camera died. I'll see what I can get today for a blog post tomorrow. I think you are going to like it...I know I do!! I have two words to intrigue you...DOUBLE PURPLE. Stay tuned!

I wanted to go to Sisters especially when I heard you would be there. I wanted to meet you. Thanks for all the pictures. That is how I take pictures at shows too. Up close and not too far away to see the stitching.
Can hardly wait to see the Christmas Lights Mystery quilt. Is that the one you sent off to Quiltmaker?We visited the High Desert Museum in March and really enjoyed it. There was a lady in a period costume crocheting a rug and I was wondering if they had anyone demonstrating quilting while the quilt show was going on. I hope to get to the Sisters quilt show some day as we plan to move to Oregon next year!
ReplyDeleteooough, I really liked the photo of this one you took of the crumb type quilt... http://home-and-garden.webshots.com/photo/2674040320048827325JffvSu
thanks Bonnie for all of the fantastic photos - for "taking us along with you" ;) and how exciting it must have been to walk up on 2 of your own designs at the show! :)
Love from Texas! ~bonneiLots of great ideas in the close up shots, esp. the feathers that came were in sort of a pointy oval!
As to the chocolate with chili? Yes!! I have tried it and you can score choc. off all the wimpy folks when they try it. "Here, take mine. It't burning my mouth!" I put choc in my chili con carne.
Sallie in VAI have to confess... after reading your update today on quiltvillechat yahoo group... I had to come back to take another look thru your album just to recheck and see if I could spot any part of "Christmas Lights" in the background photos that you took where you and your friends stayed ;) LOL
Oh you're good... you covered all of your tracks!
Love from Texas! ~bonnie
