Show Time!

Again following-up on last night’s post from mia_mcdavid, yesterday we loaded colgaffneyis trailer for our first camping show of the season, in Charles City, Iowa. Setup is Thursday evening, down there. I am busy Monday (Irish Class), Tuesday (colgaffneyis dance), and Wednesday (Church choir), so I got my traveling woodworking kit together (I hope) this afternoon, and did most of my other packing this evening.

Now that’s a PLAID. I followed the original discussion on the Scotattire list with considerable interest and had already planned to make something like this. Now I am even more excited about it. Alas, sewing projects seem to be slipping to the bottom of the queue, even though I have made considerable progress on other parts of my list.

Queue? List? Stack? Heap?–what is the appropriate data structure :-)>
