My to do list is done. I set some crazy goals before we headed to our new volunteer gig at the Schoodic Institute in Acadia National Park.

I finished: two more quilts for grand children and one for a friend’s wedding; a lace shawl that had been in the works for two years; hats for coworkers’ kids; and a few woven scarves. The scarves were really a test to see if I wanted to bring the table loom to Maine. I did and did.
As usual, I spent about ten days getting projects together to bring with me and half a day to pick out and pack my clothes.




And we’ve moved into our new quarters. All is well. Today we picked up a humongous order of groceries and took a look around. We can hear the waves crashing from the apartment. We took a hike that almost caused a panic attack when I had to climb down steep, wet rocks, right in our backyard, a National Park!!



We’re downeast, as many of the business names remind us, but nowhere is isolated enough from COVID-19. We had negative tests before arriving in Maine but another Park worker is in quarantine due to exposure so we have our first week off to explore.
Hope you brought your skiis, looks like you are right in the path of the weekends storm. I think it is going to miss us. Your quilts and weaving projects are beautiful. Enjoy your snow! Carol

Thanks Carol! We brought skis, snowboard and spikes. We are enjoying exploring the area. Very similar to the ADKs except surrounded by ocean.

Looks pretty sweet! And you’ve been busy with all those quilts! Almost as if there’s a pandemic going on and everyone’s on lockdown…
