Next came the first birthday of Dilly-Dally Days! It was a joy to create the quilt post cards for my followers ... to write each one a brief note ... to send them off in the mail! As a child and young adult, I always kept a journal ... after college, career and family happened ... too tired to journal! Summer of 2007 I had an epiphany and made some major life changes ... the concept of dillydallying began to take form. Last year, I began to journal again ... in the form of this very simple and humble blog. My only intent is to document my very modest existence in this remote corner of our planet, and am honored that anyone bothers to read it. Thank you.
The next first ... yesterday I woke to scraps of blue sky! No ... I am not exaggerating! We haven't had blue sky since I returned from Minnesota! I had a dillydally date with QBee Barb C. planned ... lunch out and knitting in the afternoon ...
... yes ... it was the first time we could eat outside ... in the sun!
We spent the afternoon, knitting on the deck ... sipping Crystal Light and eating dark chocolate ... soaking up the sun ... temps reached the upper 50s. No ... again ... I am not exaggerating.
I love firsts.
It was such a pleasure to meet you and your family too! We had a great time visiting with you, and dinner was delicious! I haven't had time to blog about the rest of our time in Cordova (blogged only day one), but will be catching up when we get home in a few days.
ReplyDeleteI'm happy the sun came out for you. We had rain in Cooper Landing, but it's raining here in Palmer. I hope the skies clear for us tomorrow, as we're going driving. I'd love to see Cordova on a sunny day. :)
Thank you so much for your hospitality, and the lovely pillow. Steve has been resting on it on the sofa in our camper. Everytime I look at it, I will think of you.
Be well and I hope you have many more sunny days.
Susan & Steve
