July 27 - Another week ??

A quick update, that begins with Thursday. Jery & I went to Kalispell to look at an Independent Living facility for his Mom. And - to visit my folks. We found a lovely place for Mary, complete with a quilter behind the desk! Well, she wasn't quilting . . . . she noticed the t-shirt Jer was wearing -- a t-shirt I'd brought home from an event, and she asked him if he quilted. That conversation opened the door for a first rate tour of the facility!

My folks are doing really well. Each day finds Daddy a wee bit stronger.

AND -- I bought a bicycle that afternoon. It had been at least 10 years since I'd been on one, and probably 20 since I've owned one! I tried it out in the parking lot to determine with my wimpy knee could handle it. Answer is yes, if I don't overdo. I've found I just can't make it up the 2nd hill between here and the lake - and back - and that of course, gives me a goal!

The quilt show is coming along. All the quilts are assigned a position and that info is listed and printed in this year's new show booklet. Quilts are beginning to arrive. The big labeling / sorting begins on Wednesday.

Today I'm walking with Barb, hopefully later making it closer to the top of hill #2, and packing for a teaching trip to Petersburg, AK. I leave a couple of days after the show, and need to be organized!

So -- that's the week in a nutshell . . . . quilt show, parents, bike . (and riding) . . . .
