Very little stitching has happened since I last posted, and
this is just a quick check-in.
I started working on hexagons for the border of my Kim McLean
project. At least it’s a start.
We spent several days on the Texas Coast at Port Aransas celebrating our 47th anniversary as well as both our birthdays. The weather was mild and I particularly enjoyed sitting on the balcony smelling the salt air and reading.
The view from our balcony at night.
One of the two rainbows we saw.
Fortunately, neither of these were an issue.
It's been years since I put on a swimsuit, so cold water was not a problem. I did get in a couple of beach walks though.
Our balcony gave us a good view of incoming ships.
Christmas was a quiet one with just the two of us. Our family celebration was Sunday, which was also Bob’s birthday.
The kids went a little overboard on gifts.
We recorded a high of 90.3 degrees on our home themometer today. This winter has started off as a very warm one, but things can change quickly.

It sounds like a nice get-away spot.
I see that your area will be above average and our below average for the next 10 days. We will be in the 20s for a week.
Your hexies are so pretty. Looks like you had a wonderful peaceful trip! We used to go to the coast a lot when we lived in south Texas but haven't been there in decades. Rockport was my favorite - not too far from Port Aransas. We are supposed to get below-normal temps next week. Whether we get any precip with it is still uncertain.
90 - that was warm. A short vacation sounds great - It has been years since I put on a swimsuit too and never have the desire to do more than walk on the edge of the water - I'm just not a water person. I don't mind sitting on the beach though or looking for shells. The hexies are wild aren't they
