GREAT VISIT!

Yesterday I put my long time friend and bead buddy on the plane back to Florida. We had the greatest visit, I hadn't seen Susan in 13 years. My wonderful god daughter Grace has grown into a full fledged, (force to be reckoned with) adult. Kind and caring but with an under lying take no crap attitude. I'm impressed. She had her boyfriend Rocco with her and he was great, diving right in to every aspect of Alaska life including chopping every round of firewood in the pile. But with Susan it was different. We've known each other since 6th grade and the easiness of sitting around the bead table working on our projects was like old times, sharing stories new and old and laughing at some pretty silly stuff. The bond of sewing together seems timeless. I think it's something that has been part of many womens lives and I am grateful for it. Not to mention I was able to get my "Late Bag" finished and in the mail while they were here...
