I sew cloth and words; I have hemmed in and let out. I mend and create and that you may see here. Before all else, I am a seamstress, but I stitch together different things each time I take up my needle.
I'll be signing off for the weekend--first living history event of the year, at what I like to call the Happiest Place on Earth. A few pictures should explain why:
If, when I return, I am a bit less than enthused to return to this century, you'll forgive me. I've been in a palace of redbuds and blooming dogwood and rolling carpets of violets.
But the happiest place on earth is Vanuatu. Seriously, there is a Happy Planet Index, and Vanuatu won! I've got a few links to Vanuatu on my blog if you want to check it out. It's my Happy Place!
Have a great time. How could you not? Lovely, lovely. I could take some rolling green right now. We're in a mini drought and I'm looking out on acres of brown. The desert should be greening by now.
I completely understand. I was always said when my Civil War re-enactment events came to an end. Reality is so cruel when you want to live in another time...

Said = sad, by the way.
Jen--LOL I didn't realize there was a real index! But--18th century paradise trumps just about anything for me.
Jill--it was green, indeed--especialy after rain half the day Saturday!
Caroline--the immersion is wonderful--it's leaving that's hard!
