Eagle-eyed Peggy noted an advertisement for a quilt show last week and the ad indicated the show started today. I was hoping she would forget about this event because I’m not real skookum on quilts and other sewing-type arts but she actually had secured a shiny postcard-sized ad that she stuck into our bathroom sink mirror trim, eliminating any chance of forgetfulness.

Today I drove her down to Cascade Middle School in nearby Sedro Woolley so she could go in and check out the results of other folks’ sewing and stitching. Since I am completely uninterested in such things, I found a shady spot in the school parking lot and read the news for the day.

In a surprisingly short amount of time, Peggy came back out of the show but not without some crafty merchandise purchased indoors. It looks like Peg is starting her Xmas shopping early.

Cultural activities completed, we then wandered over to Skagit Valley Burger, also in Sedro Woolley, where we acquired a couple more of their world-class hamburgers and tasty fries. As far as I’m concerned, this stop made the whole excursion worthwhile because it may be that Skagit Valley Burger makes some of the best burgers available anywhere.

Although Sedro Woolley is only about 25 minutes from our current campground in Bow, the trip there and back was wonderful. The rural drives in this part of the world offer superb scenery, making the drives the best part of any trip.

We spent the rest of the day in our campsite, checking out the birds.
