Whirlwind weekend.

It has been a quick few days of fun here at Wazoo, because of a visit from our youngest daughter. Saturday was her  (and her twin's) birthday, and we celebrated in style!We took a lovely Spring drive over to Hayesville, NC to the Copper Door restaurant. The food there is beautifully presented and delicious. Being the swankiest eatery in this area makes it a magnet for special dinners out, so we weren't surprised when the place filled up with young prom couples in their finery. We had a great time there.

On Sunday, we ventured out to Brasstown Bald, the tallest peak in Georgia. Mr Wazoo stayed home and quilted while we had fun looking around and enjoying the breeze.

The kids walked up the trail to the top. I rode the shuttle!



Its always comforting to see your daughter off down the trail and then see this sign...

A view of the top.
From the circular observation deck you can see NC, TN, SC and (of course) GA.
Back at home, Mr W played chef and we all enjoyed another birthday dinner. This time, al fresco!

Brats for all!!

Happy Birthday!

The weather was perfect for outdoor dining.

Once the kids were on their way back to NC, we set to work on the quilts clogging up the rack and did all these.

There are three projects in this photo, but only the top one is ready to go home. Embroidered frogs!! How cute are they?

I plan to totally use the chain block in my Rte 66 quilt...
This scotties quilt is so retro.

The customer told me that the chickadees on this quilt are cut from a panel! I love it.

Ready for Spring with pieced birds.

In the man cave we have this classic pattern.
Outside, things are blooming. We have been fortunate enough to sleep with the windows open for a week now. I'll be sad to have to turn on the AC. Life is good.







Aaron took this picture of our humble homestead with his drone. It was really cool to watch it fly around!
