Rock Island, Rock On!
This will be my eleventh year -- or is it 12? -- hosting a small quilt retreat at Rock Island State Park near McMinnville, TN.

There will be 8 or 9 of us in two cabins. Lots of running back and forth, I'm sure. I wrote about what I plan to accomplish here.
The park is in a remote area with very limited cell service. Last year they were installing WiFi so I might be able to file daily reports. But if you don't hear anything from me for a week, just know I'm having a grand time!
Enjoy!!
ReplyDeleteToday's trivia: Did you know that the founder of McMinnville, OR (William T. Newby) named it after his hometown of McMinnville, TN? The Newby name is in my step-dad's genealogy but there's no known connection.
ReplyDeleteBy all means, enjoy and have a grand time, we'll "see" you when you can post :)
I used to live in McMinnville, TN. There were several Newbys there then.
DeleteHave a wonderful time and happy sewing!
