Moving Day is Coming - Alley Moving Van

Rick and I spent the last weekend at his parent's home in Washington, Kansas cleaning out their basement and attic. When they took all that stuff up there, who did they think was going to get it down? They will soon be moving to their new home at the Tabitha Village Apt. in Lincoln, Nebraska.

Luckily the alley moving van proved useful!

Labor Day Party at Cabin

Labor Day! The end of summer. It's been cold at the cabin, so the aspen will be turning soon. Here's Karen, Susan, and Carolyn checking out the SU catalog trying to decide on this year's Christmas card. The Mini Catalog will be here soon, with lots of beautiful Christmas Stamps!

Here's the cards we made yesterday at my monthly technique class. Techniques we learned included, spiral pop up, bandanna design, and roll with the punches. Classes are held every 4th Thursday of the month. We also used my new Big Shot to punch out the flowers.

Russell Gulch Cemetery Crawl

Last Saturday was the annual Gilpin County Historical Society Cemetery Crawl. This year it was at the Russell Gulch IOOF Cemetery. This cemetery was founded by Welsh miners in the 1870's. Here's a picture of 2 miners spirit's come back to tell us how they died from the bad air 500 ft down in the mine shaft. The canary died too!

The DNC in Denver

It's finally over! The city was alive and vibrant and fun during the DNC this week. Julie and I headed downtown on Wednesday just to see what was happening. We walked the 16th St Mall and then headed over to Union Station where MSNBC was broadcasting. Not too many celebrity sightings, but did see the Verizon man and his crew!
