Justin and his Quilt



Darryl forwarded these pics to me the other day -- of his grandson, Justin, on his quilt that I made. Isn't he the CUTEST baby??? and that quilt!! WOW!!

More Super-Typhoon Man-Yi videos

Here's a couple of additional little videos I shot today...

From the front door of our apartment at the height of the storm

And another one from the balcony -- but at the height of the storm...

Super-Typhoon Man-Yi

We're in the middle of a pretty big storm right now.... hard as it might be to believe (for anyone who hasn't experienced something like this!), I'm going to MISS typhoons when I leave Okinawa!!

This is the first big storm we've had in three years, so we were ready!! :)

We're snug and safe in our apartment... still have power.... still have internet... but the satellite TV signal is gone (no surprise there, huh?)

Here's a video of the view from the balcony

Cute Bags!!

OK... I know I should be sorting and organizing and generally getting ready to move.... but I was just drawn to quilting this weekend!!! You see I had a couple of new patterns and some fabric that was just begging to move into the "finished quilts" section!!

So... I exhibited just enough self-control to fill the back seat of the car with stuff to take to the thrift shop -- and then I started sewing!! :)
