I had signed up to do a gallery tour of the Ruth B. McDowell quilts at Visions Art Museum in San Diego today. I think the group of about 40 quilting ladies might have been a Traveling Quilters group as they were from all over - Palm Springs, Temecula, Hemet, and !Canada! (surely a snowbird, eh?). The museum people divided them into two groups and one group went to lunch while the other had the tour, then they switched. I was hard pressed to keep track of what I had explained to the first group, or had I just said it to the second group? Old age? And my voice was getting a little thready by the end. But I do enjoy talking about the quilts in the Thomas Contemporary Quilt Collection, especially Ruth's quilts. They will be up until April 5th.
When I drove home I stopped at my favorite pokey place on Jamboree in Irvine to pick up a pokey bowl to go for dinner [it was delicious].
When I parked I wondered what was going on with all these people on the sidewalk. They didn't look agitated, so I went on toward them, not a shooting anyway.
By the time I returned to my car there were even more people.
Turned out they were lined up to get into Yogurtland! Something I have never seen before. But it makes sense because it was 88F there today. Whew, a little taste of summer already.
It was a very beautiful day and the ocean was very blue.
