August 5 - Quilt Show & FRIENDS
 The Eureka Montana Quilt Show was this past Saturday -- and it's the reason I've been silent. It's absolutely incredible the amount of preparation involved, though WORTH every minute! Our little town SPARKLED. We ended up with 366 quilts covering the historical buildings in the park and then along Dewey (the main street) for 4 blocks. It was WONDERFUL! This year's show was the largest crowd yet, and again we know that our efforts are working to help our community. In addition to our quilts this year we also had a display and sale of the Alzheimer's Initiative quilts.
Jery & I enjoyed house guests through yesterday morning - then worked at wrapping up the details yesterday.
Today is a FULL day. I'm off to 'kidnap' a girlfriend early. A friend is 'kidnaping' another friend and a small group of 6-7 of us will celebrate the the 'kidnap-ees' birthdays with breakfast. These friends - here in Eureka - are such a fun group of women!!
Then, I'll finish packing for my teaching trip to Petersburg, AK tomorrow. Kay is going with me. She's never been to AK -- and it's high time! We'll be in Petersburg for the weekend with the quilters, then on to Anchorage and a rental car - heading to Denali Park. Depending on the internet access I find, I'll post some pics along the way . . . .
