Fort Columbia is in Washington State, across the Columbia River from Astoria, Oregon.

The Threadheads went there once before. I couldn't go because I was waiting for my hip replacement surgery.

Friday and Saturday:
No notes, but I know I have photos.

I remember that I worked on stars for Cathy's veteran hospice quilt. When the quilt was finished, she brought it to T-heads and asked who had made my block, because it was perfect.

Barb and I don't do too well in a queen bed. I spent the night feeling as though I were going to fall off my edge of the bed, and she spent the night thinking that I was in the middle of the bed, kicking her. We shared a queen when we went to Sisters for the quilt show and stayed in Jan's family place, but we must have been smaller then.

Someone came up behind me and whispered in my ear could they use my Samsung charger. I said sure. I don't know who it was. When it wasn't in the power strip when I was packing, I figured I must have already packed it. Nope. Too bad, because it was a brand new white one, not the usual black. Shoulda put my name on it!!
