Suncadia for Travis and Deonna's Wedding

Seems like it takes a trip to inspire my posts, this time it was a wonderful weekend at Suncadia in eastern Washington near Cle Elum and Roslyn. Thanks to my cousin Norlonna's daughter Deonna Klein and our former employee Travis Jorgensen for meeting without any assistance from us and planning this delightful wedding.

We are back from an Alaskan cruise on the Holland America ship the Amsterdam. We were able to leave from our home port of Seattle, making it very easy to leave town.  Special thanks to my friend Jeanie and her Mom Margaret for making it possible, and for sister Heidi for getting us to and from the correct terminal (hey, they moved it!).  It is so much fun to have a place to wear some jewelry. I must confess I love Alaskan cruises and I believe this was my 4th.  Any time I don't have to wear a bathing suit is just fine with me, though plenty of people were still enjoying the indoor pool and hot tubs. The scenery was spectacular, the ship gorgeous, the weather decent, and the food amazing (haven't stepped on the scale yet). We are home and having a tough time figuring out how to eat without 14 choices....

I went to the Whole Bead Show at the Lynnwood Convention Center yesterday.....oh, oh....

A trip to Roozengaarde.....

New View!

Ahhhh, the advantage of losing my wonderful trees, a view of the evening sky as the sun sets....

More wire wrapping, I find it very soothing to the soul, and such fun to be able to compose as you go!
