Don't ask God to make your life easier, ask Him to make you a stronger person.

View from my window . . or W. Palm Beach . . . . .

I have been so busy with getting ready for this show that I haven't had much time for blogging.  After a 10 hour drive on Tuesday, I made it safely to southern Florida. I stayed at a cousin's house in Plantation on Tuesday night.  I do have a picture of us but she would KILL me if I put it on here.

Wednesday was spent setting up the booth.  Trying to fit a double booth into a single space is more tiring than  setting up a double booth!  I visited with some other vendors (that I consider friends).  We only see each other at certain shows so in-between schlepping boxes and displays and sweating in this southern sun, we try to visit catch up.  We would go to dinner to do that but we are all too tired.

In the meantime, here are some pictures of the view from my window which is actually a sliding door going out on to the balcony overlooking a courtyard. 






The show runs today (Thursday) through Saturday at the Palm Beach Convention Center in West Palm Beach.  Open 10am to 6pm each day.  I got a quick peek at the quilts that are showing.  Just fabulous!  Maybe I can get some pictures but hopefully I will be too busy!!


Blessings, Cathi

Have a great show. Fl is lacking in wool so you should do great. I had forgotten how tropical Fl is since I've lived in the NW for 6 years.

OK don't get me wrong-- it's a stunning place and peaceful for June or July... but just doesn't seem like Thanksgiving (over the river and through the woods kind of Thanksgiving) does it? Have fun-- hurry home.
