As I wrote in last week’s newsletter, Lorna and I (plus husbands and kids) are on a working vacation to Red River, NM. It is a perfect destination: beautiful scenery, cool, dry air, and only a long 1-day drive from home. 

Lorna and I, with input from Chris and Steve, been making plans for the rest of the year and beyond. We really needed this time away from the daily routine.

We are spending a lot of time outdoors. I am taking lots of photos, at least one should turn into a quilt! I’ll share photos next week.

The only downside is the very slow wifi and cell service. It’s so slow that we’ve mostly given up trying to go online and that is a good thing. We are each more present. The kids are very happy to have our full attention (most of the time).

So, there may not be a newsletter or Wednesday Giveaway this week. I promise to be back next week, focused and ready to go!
