I went over to the beach tonight for a break from quilting. (SO CLOSE TO FINISHING!) The sunset was incredible. We are so lucky to have the sunrise over the ocean and the sunset over the marsh.
I received a phone call this morning from Cyprus!~ Dear, dear Valentina called me and we talked for about 45 minutes, I suppose!!!!! Thank you so much Valentina! You have no idea what this gesture of friendship means to me. Do you know that we had a crystal clear connection? Something that I do not have on our cell phones, even here from the mainland. I am so touched by the heart of this lady and my soul sister...I've known her for only 6 months, and a lifetime. How fortunate we are to have our blogging family. Thank you ALL. You know who you are. I appreciate each and every one of you.

I have been visiting with you all day, reliving our conversation as I quilt.
Oh Danielle, how you have faith in me! No, not finished yet, but very close. Just finishing up the last little end section. REally I should have finished by now, but not rushing a bit. Just enjoying the process, knowing that it will be done. So many happy thoughts.
Thank you all for always coming to visit me.

The third picture down is absolutely stunning -- I love them all, but that one really captured my imagination. There's something about sunsets that always makes me think of a summer many years ago when we used to see a bagpiper playing at the end of his pier at the cottage. His silhouette against the sunset was very very evocative.
