WOW. It was a Big Wave

This couple went out for a leisurely afternoon of fishing and enjoying the bay and the sun. I guess they were a little too close to the Coast Guard Station area. There are no signs to stay away and a lot of people go in that area. A large CG boat came in. a bit fast I might say, caused a huge wave that actually destroyed the Pontoon. The force of the wave knocked off one of the pontoons and the water almost sank the Pontoon. Luckily only the boat was injured, the people were shook up but fine. Certainally wasn't the afternoon they had hoped for!

Softball World Series

This past week has been so busy with softball. Delaware was host to the Girls softball World Series for girls 13 --17. What exciting ball playing and talent, it was won yesterday by San Antonio Texas girls. My Grandaughter Katie who is 9 played in the small fry division for 9 & 10 year olds. They were in trhe finals on Friday nite and lost to Laurel Del, 13--9. The locals officals and workers are to be commended for the class act they put on. It was hours of work preparing and Delaware indeed should be proud of them. Started on Sunday and ran thru yesterday and the championship was televised on ESPN. Congratulations to all the teams who participated, you are all winners!!!!!!

Here are the pictures

No Red Tomatoes

Well, thank goodness its a tad cooler this week, not so much heavy humidity. The garden is doing great, but all the tomatoes are still green. They'll probably all get red together. We have eaten delicious zucchine and cucumbers and hopefully the tomatoes soon. I almost forgot the green peppers look good too.

I Need to Pick Some Brains

I really need some help. My Grandson Brandon is a very dedicated and enthusiatic Boy Scout. He has started working toward getting his Eagle Scout Badge which is the highest ranking badge he can attain. It takes a long time and a lot of hard work but I have no doubt that he will make it. Last year when our Lakeside Ladies went on our retreat to Lancaster PA I found this awesome fabric and need your help!!!! I don't have a pattern to make a Quilt for the Eagle milestone and would surely appreciate any help or suggestions you may have for me. Thank You

Love this Pattern

This is a Birthday gift for my friend Phyllis, We have been friends since we were 15 years old. She and her DH moved here to Delaware last August and as we grew up together, we grow old together. My DH and hers were on the Fire Dept together and are like brothers. Everyone needs a friend like Phyllis.

The picture of her and I was taken last year at my surprise 50th anniversary party.

My Guess was Good

A couple of weeks ago Linda dropped her pins and they were in a pile and I guessed 174 and was the closest to the actual number of 166. She sent me some great fat quarters, and was I happy as I have no fruits or veggies in my stash. She sent garlic in a brown and white coloring,bunches of green grapes, red cherry peppers, green peas and an adorable fat quarter of Ladies hats or should I say chapeaus. It was a real lucky guess for me, Thanks a lot Linda, I Love them all
