    Wonderful.  If you're ever in the area, I'd be happy to take you.

    I can't blame you.  We didn't have any problems whatsoever, but way too 
many have, and I can't begin to imagine what they are going through.

    You got it there.

    It finally started to recede.  But some of the folks up in Grand Forks, 
ND / East Grand Forks, MN aren't going to be able to get into their homes for 
weeks it sounds like.  Some are now, but too many have to wait. It's the 
Canada people that we have to worry for now.
    Dragging it back on topic...what are you working on lately?  I've 
primarily been doing some small hardanger pieces and trying to figure out a 
quilt pattern to do.  I've got some wonderful hand dyed fabrics in a 
wonderful array of colors that by  using the same fabric pattern (various 
colors) I want to make into a colorful quilt, and can't figure out exactly 
waht I want to do.
