Kayaking

Our latest adventure was kayaking on a section of the L A River.  What a fun morning!  The L A River is being revitalized and this section is not too far from home.





There were 14 kayaks in our group.  We launched in shallow water then spread out to enjoy the river.  



It's been several years since we rented kayaks.  This was so much fun we are planning an ocean kayaking day soon!

Sewing again!

I can't believe how long I've been away from here!  No excuses.  I guess I would just rather read blog posts than write them.  For several months we were in sort of a holding pattern waiting to see what would happen with Ed's job.  The FAA's indecision is ongoing but we made our decision and Ed retired in October after reaching his 40th anniversary as an air traffic controller.  It is strange not having a work schedule dictating our lives!

Holidays, family and a cruise have kept me away from sewing much too long.  And it’s time to change that!  This week we are “camping in our 5th wheel” so Ed can attend a seminar for one of his licenses and my little sewing machine came along.  While he was away today I pieced a table runner.  Quilting it will be my first project when we get home.  It felt good to be sewing again!
