Hi everyone, I returned last evening from my second stint of the summer on Cape Cod. I was there for 3 weeks in July, home for 1 week and then stayed for 5 weeks. I loved every minute of my time there. I did all kinds of relaxing, vacationy stuff. I have to stay stuff, because it's hard to put a name on reading books (8), seeing friends and family. All 4 of my children plus spouses, my 9 grandchildren and 2 boyfriends. Many meals with family and friends. Of course the beach and just hanging out in the back yard, watching clouds go by. I also went to two beach concerts to watch my 14 y.o. grandson play with a teenage rock band. He is a born performer. The band was in conjunction with guitar lessons. The one thing I didn't do much of, even though it was in the back of my mind, was sew. I brought out my machine and used it a total of about 3 times. Just some little mending jobs. I did get a friend to help me fit the top I had planned on finishing. I never conquered the insert with the square corners but did find a suitable way to get a nice smooth look. I combined the pieces to make a yoke with an snap opening. Pictures someday. when I finish the top. I came home with more projects then I went with. As soon as I get my laundry and house caught up I'll start sewing. I loved being away.I'm glad to be back home. Juno

I don't want you to feel bad Beverly but we plan on going back for the month of October. How long we actually stay depends on how cold it gets. It's a three season house technically. Sometimes the spring and fall are cut short because it gets to cold and damp.

I would so welcome cold and damp right now! It's 95 degrees and still going up. I lost power for 45 minutes a while ago. Back now, but fingers crossed, the AC is the only thing keeping me sane ATM.
