    That's no fun!

    Meanwhile, my wife finished this, and it will be hanging on the wall in
    back of my bed. I _think_ it'll fit. :)

    Very pretty. :)

    "Pineapple Express" has recently been word mangled to "Atmospheric River". I'm too bushed to cook. It's junk food night!

    Hope you have some good snacks handy. :)

    Looks nice. How did she make it?


    An idea, a web search for fabric, a sewing machine and a quilting
    machine. Seriously! That's all I know.
    When I was a kid, I had a cheap framed print of a flock of mallards that
    was hung by the side of my bed. She saw that, and I believe that's where
    the thought formed. It took long enough!

    That did not bother me much years ago, glad I don't have to deal with it
    any more.

    if it is light enough and a small enough area.

    Atmospheric river is what meteorologists have called it for ages. I
    don't mind losing the cutsey "pineapple express". I haven't heard
    of an "Alberta clipper" in quite some time, either.

    A snow shovel is a pretty hilarious thing to get in Hawaii. A broom, not so much. There is a chance of misinterpreting the jest of the joke.


    Same in Florida. They use one at the local ice rink and if it breaks,
    it has to be imported by Amazon.

    Both pictures work for me. A slightly dubious snow job and an
    impressive duck art work.

    50MPH winds here the last few days cycles between 35F and 70F.

    My wife thanks you and appreciates that you know what free-motion
    quilting is. I certainly didn't, although she just explained it to me.
    Oh, that! I wondered what she was doing in there. :)
    In fact, my wife thanks everyone for their kind words. I don't often
    read rfc threads to her but made an exception this time.
