We all feel bad that you have to make a decision on which of your Porsches to drive on a pretty day. Live is hard.

It is amazing how today it suddenly looks like winter. It is cold, wet and grey the leaves are falling in mass and it is a good day to stay indoors.

Jim, it was an absolutely beautiful day down here in So Maryland, went for about a 60 mile drive, up to the Virginia Bridge, up the Crane Hwy, stopped off at a few Thrift Shops along the way and bought some Christmas decorations and lights, and a second hand sewing machine, yeah yeah yeah. now I don;t have to try to sew jeans and stuff by hand, that was pi55ing me off just a bit.

Beautiful drive, back along the old Leonardtown country roads.

D, I am sure they will be hugely expensive, but I am really looking forward to seeing some beautiful work. They like me do all the quilting by hand, I am not interested in the quilts that have been done on machine, the point of quilting is to do it by hand, that's my thoughts anyway.

And here I always thought the point of a quilt was to keep warm.

well yes it is, but to me it is about the love that goes into the making of something to keep loved ones warm.

I have made many quilts for friends and loved ones for weddings etc, and I love that they have something for life that they can snuggle up to, and reminds them of the love that went into making it for them.

I bought an oly ls-20m for recording the band. It is supposed to do mp3 files but the manual is crap and the button sequence is not right. Quick time will play them but i need to edit.

I bought Quicktime Pro (and run it on my 4 year old HP laptop with Vista) in order to edit the videos I take with my Nikon camera (.MOV files).

Evening

I use MediaImpression. It came with my Pentax camera, but I think you can download it for free.
