People, Places & Things...oh my!

A couple Saturdays ago, Robino, me & los tres perritos (the 3 doggies) took a day trip to Cloudcroft, New Mexico...here is the view from 8,000 + elevation in the Lincoln National Forest in the Sacremento Mountains. If the picture had been clearer, then you'd be able to see White Sands National Monument and then further on, the Organ Mountains.

P.S. Doesn't Robino look thrilled? Yeah, he had to be coaxed into the photo...I would have posted a pic of me and the view, but it made my butt look big!
Ask me how close I live to the Mexican border? I can see Juarez from my house...less than 1 mile away! Schnikes!

Beulah the amazing piebald Doxie, models a crochet Easter hat... lol... actually a crochet experiment gone to the dogs....

Last Friday yielded a most enjoyable fellowship at Unravel Yarn Shop and Organ Mountain Quilt Shop along with the Bernina QS in Las Cruces, NM, and of course, Hobby Lobby, with new quilty girlfriends, Karen & Sarah.

Shout out to Karen, here striking a pose for the blog...check her out here. She makes me want to be a better blogger! :-P

Robino & I took a "field trip" to downtown El Paso...this was the only photo we could take OUTSIDE of the El Paso Museum of Art ...they're very persnickety about using your camera or cell phone inside...they have guards everywhere! But admittedly, they were featuring artwork by Andy Warhol and Frida Kahlo.

And so, these are my recent adventures....besides I needed to blog something?!!
