Manteo Revisited

It has been a year since I was able to visit my second home.  My mom and I enjoyed a day in Manteo and we ate lunch overlooking the inlet.  Remembering some of the sights and forgotten sounds in the streets was really nice.  We rode around the town and remembered some of the by gone buildings that used to be there.  Foodarama is on the bypass which used to be on Budleigh Street.  It was there that I first meet Andy Griffith in the late 1960s.  Also, we rode back to where the old Cloth Barn used to stand and found a Quilt Shop.  They had beautiful Downton Abbey fabric an of course, we came home with a bag.

Same Old Day

As I look over the last posting, I realize that I have been up to much of the same.  The garden is growing strawberries, squash, cucumbers, tomatoes, and everything the you saw last year.  I am still making charity quilts for the hospital and I hope to have several finished to photograph for the blog update.

I am looking forward to June 11, when graduation will come and go.  It seems that it has been a long school year and I am looking forward to some vacation time.  Jimmy is home at last.  The last 14 months in Northern Virginia may have been nice to the bank account, but it was not easy with him away.  I can't wait for summer evenings in the yard.
