HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!

THIS COULD EASILY BE THE QUILT CLUB IN AJO . . .

'MEETING OF THE QUILT CLUB GONE AWRY'

This little piece is currently hangin' out at the Sonoran Desert Inn and Conference Centers small Gift shop here in Ajo. If you  ever think about coming down this way, this would be a lovely place to stay. 

CLOUDS OF THE DAY . . .

So, a friend said to me just before Christmas "I got you something for Christmas that I know you don't have."  Of course, no hints were given and I did have to wait until Christmas to find out if she was right.  She was. My gift was the book 'A Cloud A Day' by Gavin Pretor-Pinney.  It's a wonderful book filled with amazing photos of the sky and clouds, along with some wonderful artwork depicting the same.

I didn't have a clue that there was such a thing as the ' Cloud Appreciation Society', nevermind that they have over 40,000 members from all over the world!  

If you are interested in joining, just google (or Bing-it or DuckDuckGo it, or use whatever your favorite search engine is) at cloudappreciationsociety.org.  The Book is full of smiles.  If you think some of my cloud interpretations are funny, you should see some of what is in this book.  Be ready to smile.  And, be ready to learn. The book is full of a lot of good information too.

I am now member #41,685. :)
