Off to the Fair

It's the last fair of the season. Weather's turning cooler, trees are really changing. Last funnel cake, last carmel apple, last hurrah for the summer!

Talk about chapping my a**

This was on Special Report with Brett Baier, Fox News, and I quote:
Biting the Hand...

President Obama's aunt, who was recently granted asylum after it was discovered she had been living in the country illegally, is blaming the U.S. for its immigration problems.

Zietuni Onyango told a Boston TV station, "If I come as an immigrant, you have the obligation to make me a citizen." She also said she was assigned public housing despite her illegal status, saying, "I didn't take any advantage of the system. The system took advantage of me."

Are you KIDDING ME? And we wonder why this country is going to hell in a hand basket....this pretty much answers a big chunk of that question.

More Quilts!

From traditional quilts, to avant garde...the work that goes into these, it's just amazing. My work is "hack" compared to these masterpieces.

More amazement

I'm still getting over the fabulous quilts from the 2010 Philadelphia Quilt Show...the artistry was incredible.

2010 Philadelphia Quilt Show

OMG. Once again, I was completely BLOWN AWAY by the quilts...or should I say works of art!

I'm so glad

That our government is spending my hard earned money on "projects" like this. Tell me, exactly how many jobs did this "stimulate"?? How, exactly, is this helping our economy "recover"?? No wonder the American public is so outraged at Congress...me included.

WTF????????

What a beauty!

I sit here, in jeans and a sweatshirt, remembering our trip to the Keys. The warmth, the sun, the smell of the ocean. Yeah, it was only a month ago, but...it was also a world away!
