Bags are packed-

by Karen on August 28, 2009

in Dear Jane -- or Insanity as I call, Quilting on the road

Well I guess technically you could say Camper is Packed – no bags :)   I’m ready to go as you can tell.  I have been for 3865806703_70252d24c9awhile I guess.  I have been keeping myself busy this evening seeing as everything is ready to go but my husband who is putting in an evening at work!  I thought I would work on “Insanity” this evening and I got a couple blocks done.

I will be updating my blog when I can, sometimes that will be every day other times more like every four or five days depending on where we are and availability of wireless and if we feel like finding it!  We are looking forward to hiking, seeing animals and taking photo’s.  I don’t know how familiar most of you are with Rocky Mountain National Park.  If you have never been there you must make it a vacation some day.  It is one of the most beautiful places around.  The scenery is beyond belief in places.

We have seen bear outside of the park but never in the park – we have also seen big horn sheep, elk and deer.  On the western side of the park we have seen moose.  I hope we see all of these this trip and get some good photos.

After we get done at Rocky Mtn. we plan on driving across the state and eventually end up in the southwest part of the state at Mesa Verde National Park.  Another beautiful place – but totally different.

I have the  “So Charming” fabric blocks ready for hand piecing and I hope to make good progress on it and I will take pictures along the way.  The only thing I do not like about traveling is I miss my washer and dryer!!  I really dislike laundromats :)

Talk to you all along the road!

Have a wonderful trip. We travel in an RV also, and my opinion of laundromats is they are money pits. I try to take enough clothing that we can go two weeks at a time before finding a laundromat. There’s nothing worse. Sometimes I think it’s cheaper to drop them off and have them done than to spend all your time and money yourself. Hope you can send pictures. We’re heading out for the Great Smokies the beginning of October.
