Former next door neighbors, Wayne and Loretta, arrived in the Valley a week ago, and are living just up the road. It was nice reconnecting with them, and we plan to spend some time touring the Valley while they are here.
Otherwise, life goes on. Most of the season, we play bridge at least a couple times a week. And, when the weather is conducive for outdoor play, I stay quite busy with golf, with a few other things filling the blank spaces. Here are a couple of photos flying an RC helicopter, a gift from next door neighbor Jim Miles. It is an absolute hoot, but lasts only 6 minutes before the battery runs down.
Kay, on the other hand, is always doing something, be it shopping, turning bowls on a lathe at the woodworking shop, or doing Swedish weaving. Here are a series of photographs of her newest bowl creation, turned from a piece of solid red oak, followed by a photo of the just completed 72 X 72-inch Swedish woven blanket. Isn’t she a talented artist! And Sunday evening, she was in a variety show here at BPVRV Resort.
Kay, your wood turned bowl is just gorgeous as is your blanket ! I'm really impressed with your work, especially the wood turning since I love working with wood too. I would love to watch you turn a bowl from start to finish some time! Sounds like you're having a good time and doing lots of fun things. We've enjoyed our time in Aransas Pass but in 2 weeks we head for home to get back to our “normal” life again !! Take care and keep in touch !! Jeannie
